The Israeli military said one of its UAV's had fallen inside Lebanon. The drone was on operational activity along the border before it crashed. "There is no risk of breach of information," the military added.
Hezbollah's Al-Manar TV said the drone was shot down after it entered Lebanon's air space and crashed in the village of Blida, near the border with Israel. "Hezbollah fighters now have the unmanned aircraft," the report said.
Israel and Hezbollah fought to a draw in a month-long war in Lebanon in 2006. Hezbollah has in the past claimed downing Israeli drones.
