At least seven (7) people have suffered various degree of injury on Tuesday, one of them critically, following a Hezbollah drone attack from Lebanon on northern Israel, amid heightening regional tensions as Israel prepares for an expected retaliatory attack from Iran and its allied proxies.

According to timesofisrael.com:
The Magen David Adom ambulance service said it treated victims at three locations in the Nahariya area. One person was critically wounded, another person was listed in light-to-moderate condition, and five others were lightly hurt, MDA said.
The critically wounded man, in his 40s, was hit by shrapnel while driving and he crashed into the side of the road. Hundreds of meters away, in a parking lot, a woman aged 30 was wounded by shrapnel, according to MDA. The other five were hurt by the blast from an explosion near them.
The Hezbollah terror group took responsibility for the assault, saying it had launched a “swarm” of attack drones targeting a military base, but all the casualties appeared to be civilians.
