The IDF Spokesperson confirmed a short time ago that the Hezbollah terror organization succeeded in downing an IDF Hermes drone over Lebanese territory. Prima facie, this is yet another laconic acknowledgement of a drone downing as has happened over Gaza and Lebanon.
But contrary to prior statements, this one did not contain the standard disclaimer that "there is no fear of a data leak," which has always followed acknowledgements of loss of drones over enemy skies.
The absence of this statement raises the fear that this time Hezbollah might be able to obtain important intelligence from this drone.
