Drone Explosion Rocks Central Tel Aviv, Investigation Underway
The Israeli military is investigating a possible drone attack following an explosion in central Tel Aviv early Friday. The blast resulted in the death of a man found in a nearby apartment. This occurred hours after Israel confirmed the death of a Hezbollah commander in Lebanon.
An explosion in central Tel Aviv early Friday is suspected to have been caused by a drone, the Israeli military stated.
Authorities discovered a man's body in a nearby apartment and are currently investigating the incident. 'We are looking into reports that it was an aerial target. The incident is under review,' the military said.
No aerial sirens were heard before the blast, which followed the Israeli military's confirmation of killing a senior Hezbollah commander in southern Lebanon. The site showed broken glass and a large crowd, with the area sealed off by police tape.
