Drones to monitor Palestinian terrorism
Israel ordered a fleet of spy drones to help monitor Palestinian terrorists in the Gaza Strip.
Israel Aircraft Industries said Monday that it had received a $50 million order for Heron unmanned aerial vehicles. Security sources said that most of the aircraft would fly over Gaza to make up for intelligence lost on the ground after this week’s military pullout. Israel plans to continue controlling Gaza’s airspace and coastal waters.
Foreign experts believe some Israeli drones are capable of firing missiles at ground targets.
Suspected Jewish terrorist dies
An alleged Jewish terrorist died after hanging himself in Israeli police custody.
Eliran Golan, who was facing charges of trying to bomb Israeli Arab targets in the northern city of Haifa, hanged himself in his jail cell last month and succumbed to his injuries in a hospital late last week.
A former Israeli soldier who prosecutors said supplied Golan with explosives for a series of racist attacks in Haifa has been jailed for four years.
