Define "defensive operation?" Drone-striking a caravan repeatedly over the course of something like three kilometers doesn't feel "defensive."

But maybe there's a technical definition you're using that I don't understand.

Im referring to the type of role they fill and how it relates to their objective.

Defensive - being stationed around the perimeter of your own territory watching for threats from the other side.

Offensive - Identifying high ranking targets and mobilizing an immediate drone strike in foreign territory.

And you are seeing the problem with the lack of oversight within the IDF. Who tells the local person in command to stand down when they go to far; who takes away access to those drones?

In contrast there would have had to have been several levels of management to identify a HVT in enemy territory and coordinate a real time drone strike. Goes to show what Israel prioritizes.
