IDF confirms Iranian drone hit northern city, other one downed over Golan Heights

The IDF confirms a drone launched from Iran struck a home in the northern city of Beit She’an, in the first such case since the conflict began.
Attempts were made to shoot down the drone, apparently a Shahed-136 model, but they were unsuccessful.
Additionally, the IDF says it shot down one drone over the Golan Heights a short while ago and attempted to intercept another. The results of the second interception are still under review.
A drone infiltration siren in the Upper Galilee was a false alarm, and sirens in Eilat and the southern Negev area are still being looked into, the IDF adds.
