The Jerusalem Post has reported that on Sept. 28, two Israeli Air Force (IAF) jets were scrambled to intercept two unidentified objects over Northern Israel.
The report is very limited in detail as it does not state whether an intercept was made or the two objects departed Israeli airspace.
Quoting Israeli TV Channel 2 news, they also said another jet was scrambled over an unnamed southern city; no further details are known about this episode either, although the Times of Israel said that this jet had taken off from the Tel Nof Air Force base and flew over Haifa, in what it is believed to be a series of intrusions by drones.
The Times of Isreal also posted a link to the Channel 2 website which has a video of what it says was the F-15 that scrambled over Haifa.
