Israeli Army Radio has reported that the GPS navigation system in Greater Tel Aviv was disabled for security reasons related to the drone that infiltrated from Lebanon and has still not been found by the occupation army. The radio station quoted a source in the Shin Bet internal security service who confirmed the news.

According to Channel 12, two drones infiltrated Israeli airspace from Lebanon, one of which was shot down, while the search for the other continues, said Al Jazeera news network. A military source said earlier that the occupation air force is intensifying efforts to search for a drone launched from Lebanon after sirens sounded in northern Israel for over 25 minutes.

Israeli newspaper, Israel Hayom reported that more than a million Israelis from the northern border to the south of Haifa headed for their air raid shelters after the sirens sounded, fearing a cross-border aerial attack from Lebanon.
