The Israeli Air Force intercepted three drones fired by Houthi terrorists from Yemen on Sunday, one of which penetrated Israeli airspace, triggering air-raid sirens in the Nitzana area near the Egyptian border.
The other two were shot down before crossing into Israeli territory.
The IAF engaged the drones after they were identified over Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula.
Fragments from the interception fell outside a community on the Egyptian border, in the Ramat Negev region.
The IDF Home Front Command declared the incident over. There were no initial reports of injuries or damage.
The Iranian-backed terrorist group has fired hundreds of drones and missiles at Israel and attacked vessels in the Red Sea, in, the group says, support of the Palestinians since the Hamas-led attack on Oct. 7, 202
