An IDF drone crashed in Lebanese territory during a routine IDF operation on Monday.

According to the IDF, there is no risk of an intelligence leak due to the drone's crash.

At the same time, the Hezbollah terror group has claimed credit for the drone's crash, which occurred over southern Lebanon.

In May, IDF soldiers identified and downed a drone crossing from Lebanese territory into Israeli territory towards the town of Zar'it.

A previous drone that crossed into Israeli airspace from Lebanon was shot down in December 2022.
