Israeli media: Hezbollah launches “difficult to detect” drone for the first time
The Lebanese group Hezbollah launched a new “hard-to-detect” drone for the first time on Monday, sending at least 40 drones toward northern Israel, Israeli media reported.

Israeli public broadcaster KAN said one of the drones, equipped with an electronic warfare-resistant optical guidance system, was shot down in the Kiryat Shmona neighborhood.

KAN said only a small number of the drones were intercepted, while others were hit. their targets and caused heavy damage.

The new drone is said to be able to avoid detection, maneuver inside buildings, carry up to 5 kilograms of explosives and travel tens of kilometers.

The broadcaster described the drone as one of Hezbollah’s most advanced aerial systems.

The report came as Hezbollah earlier on Monday announced a series of drone strikes targeting Israeli troop concentrations, command posts and military barracks in northern Israel and southern Lebanon.

The escalation comes amid regional tensions stemming from a U.S.-Israeli offensive against Iran that has killed more than 3,300 people since February 28.

The U.S. and Iran held their first face-to-face talks in Pakistan over the weekend to resolve the conflict, but the talks ended without an agreement.

Lebanon and Israel will hold their first meeting on April 14 in Washington, D.C., to secure a truce and start live chats.
