The Israel Defense Forces says the suspected drone infiltration in Sderot and nearby towns on the Gaza border was a false alarm.
An Iron Dome interceptor missile was fired at the “target moving toward state territory,” the IDF says, but adds that it was not an enemy drone.
“There is no threat to residents,” the IDF says.
