The newspaper reveals that the Israeli military is struggling to counter the explosive drone aircraft used by Hezbollah in southern Lebanon, despite testing numerous technological and operational solutions. A commanding officer and two soldiers were seriously injured after Israeli forces were targeted by a kamikaze drone, which brings renewed focus to the threat posed by these small "FPV" drones. Hezbollah has expanded its use of drones in recent months, announcing over 70 attacks carried out by drones since early March, with these aircraft primarily employed since the ceasefire in April. The "FPV" drones are characterized by their small size, ability to fly at low altitudes, carry explosives, and be remotely controlled via fiber optics, making them difficult to intercept or jam electronically. Workshops in Lebanon are assembling these drones at a cost of between $300 and $400 per aircraft. Israel’s efforts to intercept these drones have not yielded effective results so far, despite ongoing testing and development. The army continues to develop technological and operational solutions to address the threat, even as Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has acknowledged that developing such solutions could take time. Meanwhile, Hezbollah’s use of these explosive drones remains a significant concern, despite Israeli measures to target their facilities.
