Lebanon’s Hezbollah: Drones that fell in Beirut carried explosives
Tuesday 27/August/2019 - 02:18 PM
Lebanon’s Hezbollah said that two Israeli drones
that crashed in Beirut’s southern suburbs on Sunday were carrying explosives.
The Iran-backed movement said in a statement late on
Monday that experts examined the first drone.
The suburbs “were subjected to an attack by rigged
drones,” with the first one failing to cause a blast and the second exploding,
it said.
After the two drones crashed on Sunday, Hezbollah’s
leader Hassan Nasrallah warned Israeli soldiers at the border to await a
response.
Meanwhile, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on
Monday that Israel is ready to use “all means necessary” to defend itself
against Iranian threats “on several fronts.”
