Iran launches 30 drones at Israeli air base in Negev
Iran launched 30 drones at an Israeli air base in the Negev region, marking the first direct military exchange between the two nations in over a month. Israeli forces intercepted the attack, resulting in no casualties but significant damage to infrastructure. The incident has heightened regional tensions and prompted renewed calls for diplomatic engagement.
Iranian state media reported that the drones were launched from the eastern border of the country, targeting a military installation in the Negev. The attack was part of a broader pattern of escalating hostilities following recent Israeli strikes on Iranian sites. Israeli defense officials confirmed the drone strike, stating that the attack was intercepted before reaching its intended target.
