This comes on the heels of reports that IDF ‘suicide drones’ targeted Hezbollah’s compounds in Beirut. |
| Israeli drone flights were “an open attack on Lebanese sovereignty” and an assault on UN Resolution 1701, which ended the 2006 Israel-Lebanon war, Hariri said on Sunday, just hours after reports of two Israeli UAV incidents in Beirut. | |
| Hariri called the drone incursion a "threat to regional stability and an attempt to increase tensions." | |
| He said there's a heavy presence of planes in the airspace over Beirut and its suburbs, adding he will consult with Lebanese President Michel Aoun on what could be done to repel the “new aggression.” | |
| His comments come just hours after two explosives-laden drones – believed to be operated from Israel – reportedly targeted hezbollah facilities in Beirut. One failed to detonate and crashed in a southern suburb of the city, while the second one damaged the militant group’s media center, according to a Hezbollah spokesperson. | |
