IDF: Patriot missiles failed to hit drone

The army confirms that it did not hit the drone with two Patriot missiles, but merely shooed it away.

The IDF says the missiles were shot after the UAV managed to infiltrate into the central Golan.

“The drone returned to Syria,” the IDF says in a statement.

There are also unconfirmed reports a person injured by shrapnel from a missile on the kibbutz of Ayelet Hashahar, near the Syrian border.

The army says sirens were sounded “according to military protocol.”
