Tel Aviv attacked by Iranian drone launched from Yemen — IDF

The Israeli military thinks that downtown Tel Aviv was attacked in the nighttime by a modified Iranian drone that was launched from Yemen, Israel Defense Forces (IDF) Spokesman Daniel Hagari said.

"After our initial inquiry, it is likely that this was a Samad-3 UAV, which we assess flew from Yemen to Tel Aviv. The Samad-3 is an Iranian weapon that was likely upgraded to extend its flight range. Iran supports, funds, and arms its proxies in the region, in Gaza, Judea and Samaria, Lebanon, Syria, and Yemen, as seen last night," he said, adding that the military is trying to identify why the drone was not detected by air defense forces and no air raid alarm was issued.

He also said that another drone attack was reported during the night. A drone that was trying to enter Israel’s airspace from the east was shot down outside Israel.
