The Israeli channel Kan reported Sunday that "Israel" is investigating whether Hezbollah was involved in activating false alarms in the north last week.
The channel's political correspondent said that last Wednesday, when warning sirens sounded in the northern areas, reports reached the political and security leadership of the Israeli occupation about a drone attack against "Israel", with alarms sounding throughout Israeli settlements.
The correspondent pointed out that the Israeli security establishment is investigating whether there is something beyond a misdiagnosis, such as interference, resulting from cyber warfare by Hezbollah, which led to a lack of clarity for an extended period at that time.
Furthermore, the Kan correspondent indicated that this matter is currently under examination and the Israeli security establishment cannot confirm if this is indeed what happened.
However, she highlighted that in recent days, there has been significant electronic warfare in the northern region, not limited to GPS jamming, and this is also under investigation.
"Israel" is still disarrayed and paralyzed over what happened in northern occupied Palestine over the span of late Wednesday, with Israeli media saying there was an error that spread paranoia throughout the Israeli occupation.
This followed reports in Israeli media that there was an infiltration of glider aircraft carrying fighters and drones from Lebanon to northern occupied Palestine.
Former Head of Military Intelligence in the Israeli Army, Major General Amos Yadlin, emphasized that "the most significant threat to Israel today comes from the north [by Hezbollah]."
Israeli Channel 13 stated that Hezbollah not only deters "Israel" in the north but also prevents it from taking decisive action in Gaza.
The Israeli occupation is currently in a state of confusion, particularly on the northern front, as this front is under the targeting of the Resistance in response to the occupation's attacks on Lebanese territory.
Israeli media has reported that the Israeli military is significantly increasing the jamming of the Global Positioning System (GPS) to thwart Hezbollah's drone attacks.
The media also noted that the Israeli occupation is "going through sensitive days in the north with warnings of anti-tank missile launches."
