The Israeli Air Force intercepted a drone on Tuesday over Eilat, in Israel’s southernmost region, launched by Houthi terrorists from Yemen, the military reported.
Sirens sounded in accordance with protocol, the Israel Defense Forces statement added. There were no reports of damage or injuries.
The IAF downed three UAVs on Monday in the span of 30 minutes.
The drones, launched by Houthi terrorists, triggered air-raid sirens in the Arava area and southern Negev Desert, the military added.
The downing of the third drone did not trigger sirens, in accordance with policy, the IDF noted without disclosing its location.
On Sunday, a Houthi explosive drone crashed into Ramon Airport near Eilat, shortly after the IAF intercepted three UAVs launched from Yemen. Two people were injured.
