Flights to and from Ben Gurion airport were temporarily suspended and then renewed a short time ago today (Monday) following suspicious aerial objects identified in the area.
The IDF said that it successfully identified and destroyed five drones hovering over the Mediterranean before they entered Israeli airspace, and that there was no security incident at Ben Gurion airport.
Israel continues to contend with drone launches from Lebanon against a variety of targets within Israel, including army bases, civilian areas, and most recently - the Prime Minister's residence.
