Israeli military says it downs 'aerial targets'

The Israeli military said it intercepted a “suspicious aerial target” likely launched from Syria and also downed two targets coming from the east of the country, likely from Iraq on Monday night. 

The Islamic Resistance in Iraq, an umbrella group for Shia paramilitaries, claimed it launched two drones at Eliat.

Video posted on social media showed customers at an outdoor Hookah bar around Eliat watching an explosion in the night sky. MEE couldn't confirm the authenticity of the video.
