Hezbollah's drones have succeeded in overpowering and outmaneuvering Israeli interceptions, despite the occupation's high-tech resolutions to resolve the issue.

The Islamic Resistance's drone unit in Lebanon revealed, particularly through its recent operation targeting the Tsnobar logistics base and the subsequent damage to the Katzrin settlement in the occupied Syrian Golan Heights, the inability of Israeli air defenses and Iron Dome systems to counter Hezbollah's deadly weaponry, according to the Israeli newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth.

The newspaper confirmed that three offensive drones successfully overcame attempts by the occupation forces to intercept them, describing the events over the occupied Golan Heights as an "air battle over Katzrin."

It was noted that Hezbollah has conducted over 1,200 drone operations since opening its support front for Gaza and its Resistance on October 8.

Ynet also said the occupation forces have so far failed to provide a "solution to this deadly threat." Israeli air defenses have struggled to detect drone incursions in many operations, despite the Israeli military's efforts to obstruct the drones through the development of experimental interception systems, signal jamming devices, and Vulcan cannons.

Yedioth Ahronoth confirmed that "approximately 40 offensive drones have infiltrated Israel from Lebanon since the beginning of August," compared to July, during which "about 50 drones infiltrated."

A report prepared by Lobby 1701 (an Israeli organization for northern settlers) revealed the killing and wounding of dozens of Israeli soldiers due to drone attacks on military targets.

The report further noted that an analysis of the alert sirens in the al-Jalil settlements since the outbreak of the war shows that they were triggered at least 395 times by infiltrating offensive drones. Consequently, the occupation forces instructed hundreds of thousands of settlers to take shelter.

It also highlighted the success of reconnaissance and information-gathering drones in reaching the city of Haifa and beyond, without ever being detected by Israeli alert and air defense systems, which were unable to intercept them. This is further proven by the video footage released by the resistance's military media, showing the Hoopoe drone capturing images of Haifa, occupation centers in the occupied Syrian Golan, and the Ramat David airbase in northern occupied Palestine.

Lobby 1701 described the threat of drones on the northern front of occupied Palestine as "routine" in al-Jalil, occurring daily for over ten months, with residents experiencing "rocket fire, sirens, and panic leading them to seek shelter in fortified areas."

The report added that 1,200 drones launched at al-Jalil "have killed and injured settlers and soldiers, burned fields, destroyed homes, and made life in the Galilee unbearable."

It expressed frustration over the disparity between Tel Aviv and al-Jalil, noting, "One unmanned aircraft in Tel Aviv prompted a response in Yemen." It questioned, "How many unmanned drones will we need to face in Galilee before we see the red line for the Israeli government being crossed?"

Israeli company Inner Eye, specializing in artificial intelligence, revealed that May and June of the past year witnessed the highest number of alarm sirens in northern occupied Palestine due to drone incursions, with over 80 warnings each month. Each of these incidents led to "a lengthy series of settlements where residents were instructed to take shelter following the drone's flight path."
