The Israeli military said two drones, suspected to have been launched by Hezbollah from Lebanon, struck northern Israel on Sunday, June 14, 2026, but caused no casualties. The impacts were reported close to the Israel-Lebanon border.
“Two impacts of suspicious aerial targets in Israeli territory were identified near the Israel-Lebanon border. No injuries were reported,” the military said.
In the aftermath, two far-right Israeli ministers demanded retaliatory strikes on Dahiyeh, the Hezbollah stronghold in Beirut’s southern suburbs. Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich wrote on X that the incident “is a test of the Dahiyeh Doctrine” and urged the prime minister to act decisively, calling to “bring down buildings in Dahiyeh.”
National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir wrote on X: “For every drone — a missile; for every violation — fire; for every UAV — Dahiyeh must tremble.”
Israeli officials, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, have previously warned they would strike Dahiyeh if the Iran-backed Hezbollah group targeted northern Israeli communities — a stance Israeli leaders say has Washington’s backing.
