Eight Iranian drones were intercepted last night by the Navy's missile ships; for the first time, an interception was carried out using the Barak Magen air defense system.

For the first time, the Barak Magen air defense system and the LRAD long-range interceptor were used operationally.
The interceptor, which is installed on the Saar 6 missile ships, is capable of dealing with a wide range of threats, including unmanned aerial vehicles, cruise missiles, steep-track threats, coastal missiles, and more.

During the night, the Navy's missile ship flotilla intercepted eight unmanned aerial vehicles launched from Iran, and since the beginning of the operation, it has intercepted approximately 25 unmanned aerial vehicles that posed a threat to the citizens of the State of Israel.

The missile ships of Shayetet 3, in cooperation with the Air Force, continue to be deployed in all theaters and constitute a force multiplier in the mission of defending the country's skies.
