Apparently, no Israeli army radar on the ground, in the air, or at sea detected the Jaffa drone that struck Tel Aviv tonight, so that sirens could be sounded to warn residents and prevent the targeting of an international strategic site, which is the US embassy building in Tel Aviv.

This is absolute blindness in a period in which all... The systems are on alert and the alert is high.

Israeli army spokesman - Hagari: The army estimates that the drone that struck Tel Aviv during the night was launched from Yemen.

• The drone made its way to Tel Aviv from the sea

• The Iranian-made Samed 3 plane ( The plane was made in Yemen) was launched by Ansar Allah from Yemen

• We intercepted another drone that attempted to infiltrate occupied Palestinian eastern borders in parallel with the explosion of the Tel Aviv drone

• No change to the instructions on the occupied home front

• The protection system does not guarantee 100% protection - we are investigating the incident and working to improve our capabilities. We have strengthened our defense capabilities in the country’s skies to improve detection, warning and interception capabilities.

• We strengthened our defense capabilities in the center of the country

• The possibility of an Israeli attack against Yemen is not ruled out

• The military will conduct attack assessments in the coming days to better understand what needs to be adjusted to defend, and what the response will be against those who threaten Israel.
