An IDF aircraft attacked a motorcycle used by a fire-kite launching squad in the Southern Gaza strip on Sunday. According to Palestinian reports, no one was hurt in the incident. Since Sunday morning, 16 fires have broken out in Gaza Belt fields as a result of fire-kites and arson balloons.

“A short while ago, IDF aircraft targeted a vehicle used by a group of Palestinians who attempted to launch arson balloons from the southern Gaza Strip into Israeli territory,” the IDF spokesperson said in a statement.

Earlier on Sunday, the IDF fired a Patriot missile at an unmanned aerial vehicle in southern Syria as it approached Israeli air space.

“Moments ago, a Patriot aerial defense system missile was launched towards an unmanned aerial vehicle approaching the Israeli border from Syria. As a result, the vehicle retreated from the border. A hit was not identified” the IDF spokesperson said, adding that “The IDF will not allow the State of Israel’s aerial sovereignty to be violated and will operate to prevent any attempts to harm its civilians.”
