Israeli media reports say Hezbollah’s increasingly advanced drone operations have paralyzed up to 80 percent of the Israeli military’s planned assaults in southern Lebanon.
Israel’s Kan News agency reported that the occupation military estimates Hezbollah’s explosive drones are severely limiting operational freedom inside occupied areas of southern Lebanon.
The Israeli army has been forced to postpone many troop movements and offensive operations until nighttime or cancel them entirely to avoid detection by Hezbollah drones during daylight hours.

Israeli officials acknowledged that Hezbollah’s drones have also contributed to mounting casualties among occupation forces. The regime is suffering from shortages of anti-drone equipment, while Hezbollah has deployed around 100 drone operators across southern Lebanon.
Hezbollah has recently unveiled hard-to-detect fibre-optic drones that are difficult to jam, allowing them to bypass Israeli electronic warfare systems. Since April, Hezbollah has launched around 230 projectiles and more than 100 explosive drones in response to Israeli ceasefire violations.
