Hezbollah Deploys Advanced Optical-Guided Drone Toward Kiryat Shmona for the First Time
:Hezbollah has deployed an advanced fiber-optic guided FPV drone for the first time, targeting Kiryat Shmona. The new model is "jam-proof" and immune to electronic warfare, marking a significant technological escalation.
Hezbollah has launched a new type of fiber-optic guided FPV drone toward the northern Israeli city of Kiryat Shmona, Israeli media reported. This marks the first confirmed use of this advanced drone model by the terror group.

The launch was part of a larger barrage of around 40 drones fired at northern Israel yesterday. One of the optical drones crashed in a yard in Kiryat Shmona with no injuries reported.
