During Shabbat, a drone crashed near the home of National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir in the city of Hebron.
The drone was taken by the IDF. There were no casualties.

Reporter Itai Blumenthal reported that after investigation, it turned out that it was a drone belonging to a teenager who lived in the minister's neighborhood - which fell on Friday. The teenager identified his drone that was returned to him.
The Office of the Minister of National Security stated: "During Shabbat, Minister Ben Gvir was informed by security officials that a drone had crashed near his home, and that the circumstances of the incident were being investigated. The drone was taken by the IDF, with no casualties.".
The bureau added: "Peace to the minister and his family.".
Last week, the police and Shin Bet announced the arrest of Muhammad Awad, a 29-year-old resident of Nazareth, on suspicion of attempting to enlist in Hamas and promote the assassination of Bashar Ben Gvir.
During his interrogation by the Shin Bet, it was revealed that Awad worked for a security company in Afula and contacted Hamas to enlist and receive resources to promote terrorist activity, and also planned to carry out a physical attack.
Minister Ben Gvir said at the time: "This is the ninth time that terrorist organizations have targeted me and are trying to harm me. I thank the General Security Service, the Israel Police, the Prison Service Intelligence, the Magen Unit, and above all, God Almighty - for preventing the terrorists from harming me and my family.".
