Balloon carrying RPG warhead flown into Israel from Gaza – reports
What appeared to be the warhead from a rocket-propelled grenade attached to an inflated bag was found in southern Israel on Tuesday, apparently flown across the border from the Gaza Strip.
The warhead was found outside the community of Alumim and was attached to what appeared to be a large plastic bag filled with helium.
According to Hebrew-language media reports, police sappers were called to the scene to deal with the device.
This was the second time such an object was discovered in Israel in recent weeks. Earlier this month an RPG warhead was discovered in a field near Kibbutz Ruhama.
