More than 100 Iranian drones have been intercepted by US, UK outside Israel, says Israeli defense official

An Israeli security source claimed Sunday that the US and Britain intercepted more than 100 Iranian drones launched at Israel, Anadolu reports. Israeli Army Radio cited a source whose identity was not revealed who said the Iranian drones were intercepted far from Israeli territory. Israeli army spokesman Daniel Hagari spoke in a news conference about monitoring dozens of drones and surface-to-surface missiles launched by Iran at Israeli cities. He claimed that most of the missiles were intercepted by air defense systems and by unnamed “strategic partner” countries before they reached Israeli territory. He acknowledged, however, that a small number of rockets had fallen inside Israeli territory, pointing out that it caused minor damage to a military base and one serious injury in the south.
