Hizbullah Downs Israeli Drone in South
[AnNahar] Hizbullah
...Party of God, a Leb militia inspired, founded, funded and directed by Iran. Hizbullah refers to itself as The Resistance and purports to defend Leb against Israel, with whom it has started and lost one disastrous war to date, though it did claim victory...
on Thursday announced downing an Israeli unmanned drone in south Leb
...an Iranian colony situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel. Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects. The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years and produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds. The Lebs maintain a precarious sectarian balance among Shiites, Sunnis, and about a dozeen flavors of Christians. It is the home of Hezbollah, which periodically starts a war with the Zionist Entity, gets Beirut pounded to rubble, and then declares victory and has a parade. The Lebs have the curious habit of periodically murdering their heads of state or prime ministers, a practice dating back to the heady human sacrifice days of Baal Moloch. In 2020 Hezbollahblew up a considerable portion of Beirut and many of its inhabitants when its ammonium nitrate faci8lity exploded. They blamed it on... somebody else. It wasn't them though. Trust them on that...
In a statement, the group said its Death Eaters downed the drone at 1:55 pm after targeting it with the "appropriate weapons."

The statement said the drone was brought down as it was hovering over the Maryamin valley in the outskirts of the southern town of Yater.

The Israeli army meanwhile announced that the drone "fell during routine activity" and that the incident was being "investigated."

Hizbullah had vowed to down Israeli drones overflying Lebanon after an explosive-laden drone blew up over Beirut's southern suburbs in August 2019. It has since announced downing several Israeli drones in Lebanon's skies.
