The IDF said (~06:35Z 27 Sep 2026) that overnight Hezbollah launched an explosive drone toward IDF soldiers operating in the Security Zone in southern Lebanon, with no IDF injuries reported in the claim, and that in response the IDF struck Hezbollah targets in several areas of southern Lebanon, including sites used to launch explosive drones and anti-tank missiles, plus additional infrastructure. Israel National News and Osint613 carried the same overnight-drone / multi-site response strand. Distinct from live Sejoud weapons-storage strike evt_c52d13b0 (26 Sep afternoon). IDF did not name individual towns — southern Lebanon / Security Zone area only.
