(AP-U.S. News) Aron Heller and Ami Bentov - Israeli police have been flying surveillance balloons over the city's eastern sector and Old City to monitor protests and move in on them quickly. The "Skystar 180" balloons can stay aloft for 72 hours and carry highly sensitive cameras.

The balloons are part of a broad collection of surveillance equipment that includes security cameras throughout the city, including 320 of them in the Old City - as well as undercover units, riot-control forces and intelligence gathering.2014-11-27 00:00:00Full Article
