Explosives-laden balloons land in southern Israeli towns
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleA number of balloons with small explosive devices attached to them, which were launched from the Gaza Strip, landed in nearby Israeli communities, a spokesperson for the Eshkol region says.
Two of these clusters of balloons landed in Israeli citizens’ backyards, with one of them getting stuck on a trampoline. A third boobytrapped balloon landed in an agricultural field in the Eshkol region.
Sappers have been called to the scene to take care of the explosive devices, the Eshkol spokesperson says.
