Israel Downs Iran-Linked Drone that Came from Syria
(Ha'aretz) Yaniv Kubovich - A drone that entered Israeli territory from Syria late Sunday was intercepted and downed by the IDF in a controlled manner using electronic warfare in an open area in the Hula Valley in the Galilee. The aircraft was found early on Monday. Defense officials believe that Iran sent the drone, either directly or through one of its proxies. On Sunday, Defense Minister Yoav Gallant said, "We won't allow the Iranians and Hizbullah to harm us.... We will push them out of Syria and back to where they should be, which is Iran. The Iranians are sending their tentacles into Judea, Samaria and Gaza and trying to entrench themselves in Syria and on the Lebanese border."
