Iron Dome activated to intercept Gaza drone after night of IDF activity

Israel’s Iron Dome was activated near the Gaza border on Sunday morning in response to a drone heading toward Israel from Gaza, according to the IDF Spokesperson’s Unit.

Israel’s Air Force followed its route and used the Iron Dome to intercept the drone, which according to the IDF did not pose a threat to Israeli citizens near the Gaza border and therefore did not trigger any national alerts. 

IDF activity overnight following Huwara terror attack

Israeli security forces were active throughout the West Bank on Saturday night in search of the still-at-large terrorist responsible for the murder of Silas (Shai) Nigerker, 60, and his son Aviad Nir, 28 from Ashdod. The two were killed in a terrorist shooting near Huwara on Saturday afternoon.

During this activity, Israeli forces stationed between Tapuah Junction and Huwara confiscated several improvised weapons and bullets from the driver of a “suspicious vehicle.” In Hebron, they confiscated a knife. In Tulkarm, local residents shot at Israeli forces and threw explosives at them. IDF soldiers returned fire and reported one injury. There were no casualties to Israeli forces. 

Confiscated weapons were taken in for further examination.
