An aerial assault by Hezbollah on Wednesday injured at least fourteen Israeli civilians, when a drone piloted by Hezbollah crashed into a community center, according to Ynet.

Initial reports suggest the blasts occurred in Al-Aramashe, a Bedouin village that is around a mile away from Israel’s northern border with Lebanon. The suicide drone injured people inside the town’s community center and a passing car. Prior to the blast, no alert alarms were reportedly heard by the town’s residents.  The wounded were transported to the Galilee Medical Center in Nahariya. Four people were reported to be in serious condition, while the rest were listed as being in moderate or good condition.

Trending social media videos of the attack shows big clouds of black smoke coming from the site, and another video recorded flames as the crash happened. 

Following the outbreak of the Gaza war on Oct. 7, Al-Aramashe was evacuated due to its proximity to Lebanon. However, after spending almost six months in a hotel in Nazareth, many residents decided to return back to their homes.
