Overnight Eilat was rocked by explosions in the sky as Israeli air defenses shot down two drones that headed toward Israel’s southernmost city from the east.

While the drones never crossed into Israel’s air space, they were close enough for the explosions to be heard there.

No information was provided as to who may have launched the drones; however, Houthi terrorists based in Yemen – to the southeast of Eilat – have launched rockets at Eilat in the past.
