Thread👇🏻 the drone was launched by the Houthis in Yemen. Unlike other projectiles launched by the Iranian-backed group, this drone was not detected or intercepted by Israel.
After the Houthi drone hit a school in Eilat, schools have been closed in the Red Sea resort town.

IDF CoS Hagari on Northern Arrows: Hezbollah must not be given a break” & the “Situation requires continued intensive action on all fronts.”

Reports of a targeted strike again in Beirut’s Dahiyeh. Meanwhile massive barrage towards northern Israel, Nazareth and surrounding towns.
Among the hostages released by Hamas in this first round include 9-yr old Ohad Mundar, his 55yr old mother Keren Mundar, and his 78yr old grandmother Ruti.
Doron, Raz, and Aviv Katz-Asher have also been released by Hamas.
Intense clashes between Israeli security forces and Palestinians in Jenin. Reports of at least two injured as troops use a pressure cooker method against a home.
Palestinians reporting at least 2 dead, including the brother of Raed Hazem who carried out the deadly shooting attack on Tel Aviv's Dizengoff street in April
Update: The IDF didn't use a pressure cooker method against the home. Hazem's brother and another man inside the home tried to throw an explosive device toward troops, but failed and the device exploded near them instead
Al Jazeera journalist Shireen Abu Akleh was killed this morning after being hit in the head by gunfire during clashes between IDF troops and armed Palestinians.
During armed clashes such as these, where both sides use live fire, its never clear who fired the bullet. Palestinian Islamic Jihad militants put out a statement earlier claiming to have used live fire and IEDs against IDF troops.
Like the bullet that killed 18 year old Hanan Khaddor who was coming back from studying, her death needs to be investigated.
It's been 1 year since Operation Guardian of the Walls. What's changed? Not much. Religious incitement on the Temple Mount-still happening. Sheikh Jarrah-still an issue. West Bank tensions & attacks-they've increased in the past month & a half. Gaza tensions- still apparent.
BUT. Hamas has not fired any major barrage of rockets toward the Israeli homefront, especially toward the big cities. They want to keep the connection between Gaza and Jerusalem but do not want a significant IDF retaliation, despite what Sinwar is saying.
The Israeli government is also different, led by PM Bennett, and like the IDF, is not aching for another war just yet.
You know something’s happened when your phone gets over 300 messages in an hour and a half.
