The Lebanese Hezbollah movement on Tuesday said a drone that crashed in its Beirut stronghold at the weekend contained an explosive device weighing more than five kilogrammes (11 pounds).
The Iran-backed Shiite group had previously said an
Israeli reconnaissance drone had flown over the south of Beirut before crashing, and that a second armed drone had then "hit a specific area" before dawn on Sunday.
The latest discovery, Hezbollah said, confirms that Sunday's drone attack involved not one but two explosive-rigged drones -- one which exploded and the other that did not because of a technical failure.
