Report: Iran initiates series of drone attacks on Israel

Iran has launched a wave of drone attacks against Israel, with reports indicating that hundreds of drones are headed towards the Jewish state. The Israeli Defense Forces have confirmed the attack, with experts estimating that the drones will reach Israeli airspace in two hours or less.

In response to the imminent threat, Israel has imposed restrictions on civilian activities, including educational activities and gatherings of over 1,000 people. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressed the nation, stating that the country is prepared for a direct attack and will respond accordingly.

President Joe Biden rushed back to the White House from his weekend getaway in Delaware, and Jordan has reportedly closed its airspace in response to the escalating situation. The Foundation for Defense of Democracies’ senior vice president of research, Jonathan Schanzer, warned that any direct hit by Iranian drones on Israeli soil will likely result in a significant response from Israel.

The Iranian drones, including the advanced Mohajer-10 with an operational range of 1,240 miles, are capable of carrying loads of up to 660 pounds and flying for up to 24 hours. The situation remains tense as Israel prepares to defend itself against the drone attacks, with the international community closely monitoring the developments in the region.
