Enemy Media: Downing of Israeli UAVs, Including "Spark"
Occupied Quds - Saba: Israeli enemy media reported that Iran has revealed documents related to Israeli UAVsthat were shot down during the recent 12-day confrontation between the Israeli entity and Iran. The Hebrew-language "Kan" radio stated that Iranian forces downed a drone that appears to be a modern model used by the Israeli enemy army, in addition to another secret model known as the "Spark," also used by the enemy military. The radio indicated that "this drone can carry two specific payloads and is designed to operate as a swarm of multiple drones forming a coordinated network for intelligence gathering." Meanwhile, the Iranian Air Defense Command announced the interception of more than 130 Israeli drones since the beginning of the Israeli aggression on June 13th until the morning of the 23rd of the same month. It explained that these drones are considered "among the most advanced of the enemy's reconnaissance, combat, and strategic equipment — most notably the Hormoz 900, 450, and Heron — which were destroyed by the country's air defense fighters in recent days."

IDF : Drone Intercepted Over Dead Sea, Suspected to Have Originated from Yemen
Israeli media outlets reported on Thursday that the country's air defense systems intercepted a drone over the Dead Sea, amid growing concerns about long-range threats from Yemen. According to Israeli Channel 13 and other Hebrew-language sources, the drone was detected approaching Israeli airspace from the southeast before being neutralized by the military. While the Israeli army has not officially confirmed the drone's origin, preliminary assessments suggest it may have been launched from Yemeni territory, possibly by Houthi forces. The incident triggered air raid sirens in nearby areas, though no casualties or damage were reported. Military analysts noted that the drone's flight path and timing are consistent with previous Houthi attempts to target Israeli or allied assets in the region. This comes amid heightened regional tensions following recent Israeli and U.S. strikes on Iranian-linked targets, with Yemen's Houthis declaring full support for Iran and threatening to resume attacks on Red Sea shipping and military vessels. Israeli defense officials have reportedly increased surveillance and readiness along the southern and eastern fronts, warning that non-state actors like the Houthis could attempt to open new fronts in the ongoing conflict.

Netanyahu stuns Israelis by describing ‘personal cost' of Iran war – postponing son's wedding
Benjamin Netanyahu has evoked the spirit of London during the blitz, and pointed to his own family's sacrifice amid the blood, toil, tears and sweat of his nation: the second postponement of his son's wedding. The Israeli prime minister's remarks, solemnly delivered to the cameras against the backdrop of a missile-struck hospital building in the southern city of Beersheba, set off a howl of derision that echoed around the Hebrew-language internet, at the height of a war that Netanyahu unleashed on Friday. The stunning comments also added grist to the arguments of his critics that the PM is increasingly cut off emotionally from the daily realities of Israel and the region, after more than 17 years in office. Related: Israel's assumption US would get drawn into Iran war is being put to the test Seeking to underline his family's shared hardship with ordinary Israelis, Netanyahu adopted a Churchillian tone when pointing out that this was not the first time his son Avner's wedding had needed to be postponed, and that Avner's fiancee was also disappointed, not to mention the thwarted mother of the groom, Netanyahu's wife, Sara. 'It really reminds me of the British people during the blitz. We are going through a blitz,' Netanyahu said, referring to the wartime Nazi bombing of Britain in which 43,000 civilians died. 'There are people who were killed, families who grieved loved ones, I really appreciate that,' he went on. The Israeli authorities say 24 Israeli civilians have so far been killed. Washington-based human rights activists have estimated the Iranian civilian death toll to be 263. 'Each of us bears a personal cost, and my family has not been exempt,' Netanyahu said at the Soroka hospital, which was struck on Thursday morning by an Iranian missile, causing light injuries. 'This is the second time that my son Avner has cancelled a wedding due to missile threats. It is a personal cost for his fiancee as well, and I must say that my dear wife is a hero, and she bears a personal cost.' Avner Netanyahu's wedding was first scheduled for November but was postponed for security reasons. Then it was due to take place on Monday, despite the threat of opposition protests. Reports that the prime minister was going to take a few days off for the event may have contributed to Iran's complacency on Friday morning when its leadership was taken unawares by Israel's aerial attack. The Israeli backlash to Netanyahu's nuptial comments was instant and furious. Anat Angrest, whose son Matan has been held hostage since the Hamas attack on Israel on 7 October 2023, observed that the suffering 'didn't go unnoticed by my family either'. 'I have been in the hellish dungeons of Gaza for 622 days now,' Angrest said in a post on the social media platform X. Gilad Kariv, a Knesset member for the Democrats, called Netanyahu a 'borderless narcissist'. 'I know many families who were not forced to postpone a wedding, but who will now never celebrate the weddings that were once meant to take place,' Kariv said. He was contemptuous of Netanyahu's claim that his wife, Sara, notorious in Israel for her expensive tastes, was a hero. 'The doctors who leave home for night shifts are the heroes,' Kariv said. 'The teachers who keep our children together on Zoom and phone calls are the heroes.' Amir Tibon, an Israeli journalist, argued that public figures whose children had been killed in combat would never draw attention to the fact. 'But there are no surprises with Netanyahu,' Tibon said. 'Even in moments when a personal example is most needed, he is first and foremost concerned with himself.'
