"Israeli Navy Thwarts Yemeni Drone Over Red Sea"

The Israeli Navy intercepted a drone entering Israeli airspace from the Red Sea using the "Naval Dome" system, with the target initially detected by Israel Air Force and naval units. British security firm Ambrey reported that the drone was assessed to have been launched from Yemen, and observed unprecedented levels of Automatic Identification Systems interference off Eilat and neighboring Aqaba, Jordan, due to electronic warfare counter-measures. This interception comes amid ongoing tensions with Iran-backed Houthis in Yemen and their support for Hamas, with Eilat being a frequent target for such launches.
