A dramatic video circulating on social media shows a drone explosion occurring just meters from an Israeli military helicopter during a rescue operation in southern Lebanon. The incident involved two drones launched by Hezbollah, with one being intercepted while the other detonated near Israel Defense Forces (IDF) soldiers who were evacuating their troops. The IDF reported that the helicopter was on the ground when the explosion happened, forcing it to take off rapidly to avoid further attacks. Despite the chaos, the helicopter was not damaged and completed the evacuation. Tragically, Sgt. Idan Fooks, a 19-year-old soldier from Petah Tikva, was killed by a Hezbollah drone strike in a separate incident, which also injured six other soldiers. In response to the escalating situation, Israel has issued fresh evacuation orders for residents in seven towns in southern Lebanon.
