A Hezbollah drone attack on an Israeli military base near Binyamina, south of Haifa, resulted in the deaths of four Israeli soldiers and left seven others critically injured. The attack, which occurred on Sunday, targeted a Golani Brigade training camp. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) identified the fallen soldiers as Sergeants Omri Tamari, Yosef Hieb, Yoav Agmon, and Alon Amitay, all 19 years old. Over 60 individuals sustained injuries in the incident, with the drone crashing into a dining hall. The drone strike, one of the deadliest by Hezbollah in recent years, managed to bypass Israeli air defenses undetected, although it was tracked by radars. All injured personnel were evacuated to hospitals, and their families have been notified. The IDF is currently investigating the breach in its air defense system.
