Hezbollah has intensified its drone operations for a second consecutive day, targeting Israeli troop positions in southern Lebanon and further straining an already fragile ceasefire. The Israel Defense Forces responded by deploying aerial interceptors against suspected UAV incursions over operational zones. The IDF confirmed that one soldier sustained critical injuries and another was lightly wounded in a drone strike carried out the previous day. Both were evacuated to hospital, and their families have been notified. In a separate confirmed incident, 19-year-old Sgt. Idan Fooks was killed in a Hezbollah drone attack, with six additional soldiers wounded. WATCH
