Six Long-Tethered Kites From Gaza Land in Israeli Border Area

Six kites originating from the Gaza Strip landed today in the Israeli border region known as the Gaza envelope. Each kite was attached to strings extending several kilometers in length. This incident recalls similar events that occurred in 2018, when kites with incendiary or disruptive devices were flown from Gaza into Israeli territory. Authorities are monitoring the situation given the potential security and safety risks posed by such long-tethered kites crossing into Israeli areas.
