by english.aawsat.com — An Israeli drone crashed inside Lebanon during operational activity along the border, an Israeli military spokeswoman said Sunday. “There is no concern that any information was leaked,” the spokeswoman said. Israel’s Channel 12 reported that the drone crashed after it experienced a technical failure. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Sunday that the Lebanese state was responsible for any attack on Israel from within its territory. Israel would “not allow Iran to establish a military base” on its northern border, he said in reference to Hezbollah’s presence in southern Lebanon. His warning came amid an increase in Israeli flights over Lebanon. The Lebanese army said it recorded a total of 29 violations of Lebanese airspace in the last 48 hours. Tension rose this week along the Israel-Syria frontier after a Hezbollah member was killed in an apparent Israeli strike on the edge of Damascus on Monday. The Israeli military said it has since boosted its forces on its northern front, where Israel borders Lebanon and Syria.
