Israeli surveillance drones resumed their flights over Beirut and its suburbs on Tuesday morning, a day after they overflew the capital and nearby areas in an intensive manner that sparked concern among residents.

Media reports said the drones overflew Baabda on Monday in a possible political message to President Joseph Aoun, as Speaker Nabih Berri said Israel has rejected a U.S. proposal for indirect negotiations with Lebanon.

U.S. envoy Tom Barrack on Monday urged Lebanon to act on the issue of Hezbollah’s disarmament, warning that there might be a “major confrontation” between Israel and Hezbollah if Beirut does not take serious steps.
