A major security scare unfolded near the West Bank settlement of Beit El after Israeli troops apparently opened fire on what they believed was a hostile drone. The Israeli military later said the suspected target may actually have been a civilian aircraft flying through the area. According to the IDF, residents had reported unidentified drones overhead, prompting troops to investigate. Officials say altered flight paths into Ben Gurion Airport may have caused aircraft to fly unusually low over the region, potentially triggering the confusion. The military is also examining whether a police drone operating nearby contributed to the incident. No injuries or damage have been reported. The episode comes amid heightened tensions as Hezbollah's repeated drone attacks keep Israeli forces on constant alert. #Israel #IDF #Hezbollah #DroneAttack #WestBank #BeitEl #MiddleEast #BreakingNews #Military #Aviation #DroneThreat #SecurityAlert #BenGurionAirport #IsraelNews #WorldNews Times Of India (T
