Debris from two drones, identified as belonging to the Israeli defense company Rafael, were discovered on a beach in Kiryat Haim. Police and a sapper arrived at the scene to collect the fragments. The beach was temporarily closed to the public following the discovery.
The debris was found by 65-year-old Shlomi Sirioti, who initially reported the find to the police. Sirioti stated that the police initially did not deem it necessary to dispatch officers, telling him that a broken drone did not warrant a visit. After Sirioti insisted, emphasizing the need for a sapper due to the danger of touching the items, two police officers, an officer, and a sapper were sent to the location.
They examined the wreckage and proceeded with its collection. The circumstances surrounding the discovery and the drones' connection to Rafael's testing became a focus of attention following an incident on Israel's northern coast.
