Hezbollah hits back with drones in Israel’s Lebanon war

From DW News.

More than a month into a ceasefire, Israel and the Lebanese militant group Hezbollah continue to trade strikes. While Israeli attacks have largely depleted the Iranian proxy’s missile stockpiles, new first-person view (FPV) drones, which are controlled by fiber optic cables, are slipping through Israel’s air defenses. The weapon is widely used in Ukraine’s war effort against Russia’s invasion, but Hezbollah’s are not believed to be as sophisticated.
We ask Zachary Kallenborn, a warfare and drone analyst who’s currently doing research at King’s College London, about what makes these first-person view drones, or FPVs, distinct and if they really are indefensible weapons.
