This afternoon, a drone of unknown origin, slammed into a school in Israel’s southernmost resort city of Eilat, causing extensive damage but no serious injuries. Dozens of elementary schoolchildren were on the first floor at the time but were unhurt.

The Israel Defense Forces confirms the drone hit but did not confirm the source of the attack. A subsquent photo of the drones’s engine indicate that it came from Chechnya. But the drone itself appears, according to media sources, to have come all the way from Yemen. But the IDF did not officially confirm its origin, though Defense Minister Yoav Galant, in a media conference, laid the blame at the doorstep of Iran.

A subsequent missile launch from Yemen, with an explosive payload of two hundred or more kilograms, was reportedly intercepted in space by an Israeli Arrow missile south of Israel’s borders over the Red Sea.

In recent weeks, the Iran-backed Houthis in Yemen have attempted to fire drones and missiles at Eilat, though in all the attempts the projectiles were either intercepted or missed their target. In this case of the school blast in the afternoon, the IDF didn’t even detect the penetration into Israeli airspace.
