Israel military says intercepts two drones near Jordan border

The Israeli military said it intercepted on Monday two drones near the Jordanian border and was investigating where they had been launched from.

Earlier this month, the military said Israeli and Jordanian forces had intercepted an Iranian missile fired toward the Jordanian city of Aqaba.

"A short while ago, the IDF intercepted two UAVs identified in the area of the Jordan border," the military said on Monday.

"The UAVs did not cross into Israeli territory. The origin of the launch is under review."

Israel has not taken part in the latest round of hostilities between the United States and Iran.
