According to the reports on Monday (11 November), The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) reported shooting down four drones launched overnight from “the east,” a term often used to refer to Iraq. Two of the drones were intercepted before they entered Israeli airspace, showcasing Israel’s ongoing vigilance against aerial threats.
The Iran-backed Islamic Resistance in Iraq took responsibility for launching these drones toward Israel. This action reflects the continuing tensions between Israel and Iran-aligned groups in the region, with frequent confrontations and threats emerging from multiple fronts.
IDF’s interception of the drones underscores the effectiveness of Israel’s air defense systems in neutralizing airborne threats before they reach populated areas. This swift response aims to prevent any potential damage or casualties that could arise from such attacks.
As Israel faces threats from various groups in surrounding regions, its security forces remain on high alert. The incident highlights the ongoing regional instability and the constant need for defense preparedness in Israel against Iran-aligned factions operating in neighboring countries.
