The IDF says fighter jets were scrambled after the drone apparently breached Israeli airspace from Gaza.
“During additional searches of the ground in the area, a drone was located a short time ago. It is being checked if this is the drone that is suspected of having crossed into Israeli territory,” the military says.
Images from the scene showed the small glider in a field in the Eshkol region. The IDF does not specify how the device was brought down.
