The Israeli occupation army claimed on Friday that it downed a drone over "Zarit" illegal settlement, which has crossed from southern Lebanon into northern occupied Palestine.

According to the occupation army, the drone was monitored by the control systems throughout the incident.

This comes at a time when the occupation government is on alert in light of the security escalation at the Lebanese borders with northern occupied Palestine on the one hand, and with the Gaza Strip on the other.

Starting last night and extending until this morning, southern Lebanon and Gaza witnessed a series of Israeli air aggressions.

While Israelis targeted the Qlaileh area located between the plain of Ras El-Ayn and the Rashidieh refugee camp - both of which are located in the vicinity of Tyre City in south Lebanon - the Israeli attack on Gaza was much broader and more intense.

The Palestinian Resistance responded to the occupation aggression by launching barrages of rockets toward illegal settlements in the Gaza envelope.

Gaza retaliatory rockets included targeting the occupation settlement of "Sderot", "Ibim", "Nir Am", and "Ashkelon", among others. The Palestinian Resistance in Gaza also fired a significant number of anti-air missiles toward Israeli occupation war jets that were carrying the raids on the Strip.

Earlier yesterday, the Israeli occupation military said 34 rockets were launched on Thursday from southern Lebanon on occupied Al-Jalil. The occupation claimed that the Iron Dome air security system intercepted 25 of the projectiles, adding that at least five rockets landed in occupied Palestinian lands.

The Times of "Israel" highlighted that the attack "may mark the largest number of rockets fired from Lebanon" since the July 2006 war.

Israeli media linked the rockets launched from southern Lebanon to the continuous IOF savage attacks against Al-Aqsa mosque and the Palestinian worshippers practicing Itikaf in it.
