The IDF just announced that another ‘aerial threat’ was launched toward the city of Eilat and that it was intercepted by their Aerial Defense Array.
No one was hurt and the threat never made it into Israeli territory:

Someone caught this on video and it is believed to be the ‘aerial threat’ being taken out:

It was likely either a ballistic missile or a suicide drone from the Houthis in Yemen. This makes the second attack today and Israel easily dispatched them both.
