IDF: Several suspected drones launched from Iraq at northern Israel down successfully

Emanuel (Mannie) Fabian is The Times of Israel's military correspondent

The IDF says that several suspected drones launched at Israel from Iraq were successfully intercepted, a short while after sirens sounded in communities in the southern Golan Heights.

The “suspicious aerial targets” did not cross into Israeli airspace, the IDF says, adding that there were no casualties in the incident.

Meanwhile, rocket alert sirens that sounded in Dovev, also near the border with Lebanon, were false alarms, the military adds.
