Hezbollah may face retaliation

Now what? Hezbollah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah acknowledged yesterday sending a drone into Israel, which was shot down last weekend after flying some 25 miles (55 km) into Israeli territory. Nasrallah said in a televised speech that the drone was Iranian-made. Israeli warplanes shot down the unmanned plane, but the infiltration marked a rare breach of Israel’s tightly guarded airspace. Already under pressure in Lebanon, Hezbollah is under pressure from rivals who accuse it of putting Lebanon at risk of getting sucked into regional turmoil.
