Israel's military said throughout the day it had responded by striking Hezbollah targets.Israel's military said in a statement that it tried unsuccessfully to intercept the drone.Amateur footage of a drone falling from the sky and landing in an area surrounded by trees was published by leading news website Ynet and Channel 12 TV.
