As reported by Lebanese Blog Baladi:
A bird was caught in Achkout by a local hunter wearing a GPS transmitter and a leg bracelet engraved with the “Tel Aviv University” logo. The website that posted the story claimed said that the device attached to the eagle, was obviously being used for the purpose of spying on Lebanon by the Mossad, and such birds were spotted in KSA in 2010, Turkey in 2012 and Egypt this year.Photographs of the dead bird at different angles, including the leg bracelet. Damning indeed.
The Lebanese blogger adds:
Honestly speaking, I don’t think Israel needs vultures and eagles to spy on us. On another hand, I wonder why hunters are shooting down eagles in Achkout? I’ve been told by few friends that a lot of Lebanese hunters shoot down anything that flies whether they are going to eat it or not. If that’s the case, I think this matter is way more serious than investigating with a bird holding a GPS device.It's time for Mossad to start arming their spy birds. Over-population of morons in this world is calling for culling, especially and starting with ones that will shoot anything that flies...
Update:
At Ynet's request, the Nature and Parks Authority examined the number inscribed into the bird's tag. According to them, the captured raptor is a Bonelli's Eagle, one of Israel's rarest and endangered birds of prey.

Arming birds? Hm. I guess the next trick will be teaching them how to use the targeting device.
He may have been in bed with 2,000 women but I doubt very much that he actually "slept." Love to get my paws on that Braille edition.
Pull
As long as they don't discover that every fly has a transmitter and video camera on them we are ok.
Eagles are usually very good at targeting without additional electronics.
Who knows, people who brag so much about their conquests could have been very well asleep in their beds. Alone, too.
They are getting close to that thought.
Pull what?
A random thought from Skeet and Iraeli bird spies. An audio visual may help.
