Breaking news has just come out of Israel as an explosion has been reported on Thursday, November 9 in the southernmost city of Eilat. At this time, no injuries have been reported. This is a developing story.
Surveillance footage from near the school where the blast happened showed a buzzing noise that is possibly from a drone prior to it. At this point, police are investigating this as a “suspected security incident” and they have asked people to stay away from the area.
Images from the incident show that a local school was damaged from the blast.

At this time, we don’t know what caused the explosion or why it happened. The investigation is still ongoing and all details are yet to be determined.
This is not only important for finding out who may be responsible for this act but also for preventing future occurrences like these from occurring again in any other places across Israel.
Based on what has been revealed so far, this appears to be a security-related incident that needs further scrutiny before any definitive conclusions can be made.
