JERUSALEM: Israel鈥檚 military said Friday it struck an organization in Syria that was behind a drone crash into a school in southern Israel a day earlier.
鈥淚n response to a UAV (drone) from Syria that hit a school in Eilat, the IDF struck the organization that carried out the attack,鈥� the Israeli army said in a post on X, formerly known as Twitter.
It did not identify the organization behind the drone, but said it 鈥渉olds the Syrian regime fully responsible for every terror activity emanating from its territory.鈥�

The drone hit an elementary school, without causing injuries, though several people were treated for shock.
Yemen鈥檚 Iran-backed Houthi rebels said Thursday they had launched a 鈥渂arrage of ballistic missiles鈥� at southern Israel, making no mention of drones.
And Israel said its air defenses had intercepted a missile over the Red Sea.
Israel is waging an offensive against Hamas in Gaza after the militant group poured across the border on October 7 in an attack that killed 1,400 people, mostly civilians, and saw around 240 abducted, according to Israel.
The subsequent aerial bombardment and ground offensive in Gaza has killed more than 10,800 people, mostly civilians, according to the Hamas-run health ministry.
The conflict has stoked regional tensions, including cross-border exchanges between Israel鈥檚 military and the Lebanese militant group Hezbollah.
Israel鈥檚 military said earlier it hit 鈥淗ezbollah terrorist infrastructure in Lebanon,鈥� with artillery and guided mortar munitions.
