Explosive Drone Attack Wounds Eight Israeli Soldiers in Southern Lebanon
The Israeli Defense Forces confirmed that eight soldiers were wounded by an explosive-laden drone launched from southern Lebanon on April 13, 2026. The attack targeted a military position during a surge in cross-border hostilities that began in early March. It follows Israeli airstrikes earlier the same day along the Syria-Lebanon border, which the IDF claimed were necessary to disrupt Hezbollah's weapons smuggling routes following the collapse of a regional ceasefire framework.
