The defense establishment has expressed concern over the potential use of explosive drones operated from within Israeli territory, according to a report. No specific incidents were cited.
The report, circulated Friday morning, highlights a growing concern within the defense establishment that terrorist elements could operate explosive drones from within Israeli cities or territory, rather than launching them from outside. The Zioneer reported on Thursday that the defense establishment had identified a significant increase in attempts by terrorist elements to operate explosive drones, including fiber-optic models. The new report does not specify whether any specific plots have been thwarted or are currently under investigation.
