Houthi drone flew 2,600km to reach Tel Aviv

The Houthi-launched drone that struck Tel Aviv early on Friday morning travelled more than 2,600km, according to an Israeli Air Force investigation reported by The Times of Israel.

The modified Samad-3 drone took an indirect flight path, likely causing air defence troops to miss it as a threat. As a result, it was not intercepted and struck a residential building in Tel Aviv.
