Israel’s army says intercepts 'hostile aircraft' from Lebanon inside Israeli territory

The Israeli army said it intercepted a "hostile aircraft" that crossed into Israeli territory from Lebanon on Wednesday, the first such infiltration reported by the military in more than 24 hours.

"Following the sirens that sounded a short while ago regarding a hostile aircraft infiltration in the areas of Manara and Kiryat Shmona, a suspicious aerial target that crossed from Lebanon into Israeli territory was intercepted," the military said.
