An explosive drone struck a residential home in Metula on Monday afternoon, the first time since the beginning of the fighting in southern Lebanon that an explosive drone has directly hit a residential building inside Israel.

The building suffered damage, but Baruch Hashem, no one was physically injured in the attack.

Medical teams at the scene treated one person suffering from shock.

The drone was one of three Hezbollah explosive drones that exploded inside Israel since this morning. On Sunday morning alone, 30! explosive drones detonated near IDF troops operating near the Lebanese border, killing one soldier and seriously injuring another soldier.

The drone that struck the home was part of a broader attack involving several explosive drones launched by Hezbollah toward Israel.

“Following alerts activated regarding hostile aircraft infiltration in several areas in northern Israel, the Hezbollah terrorist organization launched several explosive drones toward IDF forces and Israeli territory,” the IDF said.

“An explosive drone impact was identified in Metula. The incident is being investigated by security authorities.”
