Dec 10, 2024, 06:32 AM
On December 9, a drone struck a building in Yavne, Israel, prompting an operational inquiry led by Maj. Gen. Tomer Bar, the Commanding Officer of the Israeli Air Force. The inquiry revealed that the drone, which was launched from Yemen, was identified as a suspicious target near other non-hostile aircraft. Due to concerns that it might be a civilian aircraft, the drone was not intercepted by the Israeli defense systems. Maj. Gen. Bar acknowledged the failure in the defense response, stating, 'We feared it was a civilian aircraft. We failed in defense.' The incident highlights the complexities Israel faces in detecting and classifying drone threats amid ongoing regional tensions.
