The IDF Spokesperson’s Unit confirmed the red alert sirens and said it was investigating the incident.

Red alerts sounded in the northern Galilee area, the Jordan Valley and the southern Golan Heights on Friday morning after an unmanned aerial vehicle crossed into Israel from Lebanon.

At least two rounds of red alert sirens were activated in the North, the first time in several months.

According to the military, the sirens were activated after the UAV crossed into Israeli airspace. It is still unclear if it was downed by an Iron Dome interceptor as contact with it was lost after several minutes.
