\n The explosive-laden quadcopter skimmed above the rooftops of southern Lebanon<\/a>, navigating with precision between bombed-out buildings and along dirt roads. The drone gave its operator a clear first-person picture of its target: an Israeli tank with soldiers standing nearby.\n <\/p>\n

\n At the top of the picture, in white letters, were two words.\n <\/p>\n

\n The quadcopter is a fiber-optic drone, experts say, a weapon Hezbollah has increasingly used with deadly accuracy. The drones are difficult to stop and even harder to detect, giving their operators a high-resolution view of the target without emitting any signal that could be jammed.\n <\/p>\n

\n The drones are \u201cimmune to communication jamming, and in the absence of an electronic signature, it is also impossible to discover the location from which they were launched,\u201d wrote Yehoshua Kalisky, a senior researcher at Israel\u2019s Institute for National Security Studies.\n <\/p>\n

\n In a sleekly produced Hezbollah video from Sunday, the quadcopter drone, weighing no more than a few kilograms, hits its target as the Israeli soldiers appear to be completely unaware of its approach. According to the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), the attack killed 19-year-old Sgt. Idan Fooks and injured several others. Hezbollah then launched more drones at a rescue helicopter that arrived at the scene to evacuate the wounded troops.\n <\/p>\n

\n Fiber-optic drones are effective in their simplicity: Instead of a wireless signal that controls the drone remotely, the fiber-optic cable hardwires the drone directly to its operator.\n <\/p>\n

\n Because fiber optic cables are so thin and light \u2013 virtually invisible to the naked eye \u2013 the cable can stretch for up to 9.3 miles (15 kilometers) or more, an Israeli military source told CNN.\n <\/p>\n
