Lebanon's Hezbollah has published a video showing drone footage purportedly capturing surveillance of various locations in Israel, including the city of Haifa and the Kiryat region. The nine-minute and 31-second-long video, released on Hezbollah's Telegram channel, features images of Haifa's sea and air ports, residential and military complexes, and Israeli Sa’ar class corvettes. The footage, reportedly captured by the Al-Hudhud UAV, also includes sensitive Israeli sites such as Iron Dome batteries. This development highlights Hezbollah's potential capability to gather intelligence on critical Israeli infrastructure, which could be a significant concern for the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF). The drone footage was released as a response to perceived threats from Israel against Lebanon.
