Hezbollah Drones Attack IDF Soldiers in Southern Lebanon; Israel Retaliates
Hezbollah launched two explosive drones targeting Israeli soldiers in southern Lebanon early Monday, September 7, 2026. The attack occurred near the Al-Taher ridge in the security zone. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) reported no casualties among its troops.
In response, the IDF immediately struck multiple Hezbollah infrastructure targets in southern Lebanon, including a weapons depot. The military also targeted a group of Hezbollah operatives observed transporting weapons near Kfar Remman. These strikes were aimed at neutralizing immediate threats to IDF soldiers, with measures taken to minimize civilian risk through precision munitions and aerial surveillance. Reports of potential civilian casualties are currently being investigated.
The IDF also stated that following the drone launches on Sunday, it conducted a strike near Nabatieh, eliminating several Hezbollah operatives. The military emphasized its commitment to preventing harm to Israeli civilians and soldiers by Hezbollah and vowed to continue operations to neutralize threats while adhering to the ceasefire agreement.
