April 15 (EUROPA PRESS) –

The Israeli Army has confirmed the interception of a drone directed against Israeli territory coming “from the east” during the early hours of this Monday and without causing any threat or damage, all this a few hours after a similar action against an “object suspicious” coming from the Red Sea.

“Overnight, Air Force fighter jets successfully intercepted an unmanned vehicle heading towards Israeli territory from the east. The vehicle was being guarded by forces of the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), it was not supposed a threat and no alert was activated. There were no casualties or damage,” the Israeli Army reported on its X social network account, formerly Twitter.

It should be noted that there is a presence of pro-Iranian militias in both Syria and Iraq and that they have previously carried out attacks against Israeli territory, although no group has claimed the attack at the moment.

Following Saturday night's attack, Iran has assured that its response to the Israeli bombing of the Iranian Consulate in Damascus had ended and that it would only take further action against Israel in the event of an IDF response, something that has not yet been confirmed. occurred even though Israel has promised to do so.
