The Israeli army announced, on Wednesday, that it suspects the airspace of northern Israel was infiltrated by drones coming from Lebanon.

The army said in a statement published on the “X” platform, “There is suspicion of infiltration by drones from southern Lebanon into Avivim in the Upper Galilee, northern Israel.”

He added: "All citizens in the areas where sirens were heard must enter shelters and remain inside them until further notice."

The Israeli army said in a statement in response to the developments in the north: “You must remain in the protected rooms (shelters) until further notice, and put in place means of communication and other necessary equipment needed for a long period.”

He continued: “The shelter door, the outer steel window, and the inner glass window must be closed tightly, because movement outside in this area threatens life,” according to the Hebrew newspaper “Yedioth Ahronoth.”

In the same context, the private Hebrew Channel 12 reported “suspicion of the infiltration of 15 to 20 drones from southern Lebanon to Avivim,” without further details.

The head of the Supreme Council of Galilee, Giora Zaltz, stated that manned gliders were seen entering from Lebanon, and he asked all residents to barricade themselves in their homes, according to “Yedioth Ahronoth.”

There was no immediate comment from the Lebanese side on the matter.
