Time and time again lately we have seen officials in the Tri-State area using drones to do good. But more and more police in New York have been viewing them as potential threats.

Wednesday, August 21, 2024 2:56PMTEL AVIV, Israel --But more and more, police in New York have been viewing them as potential threats.In the dark sky over the Mediterranean sea, video shows that a deadly attack is seconds away.Night turns to day as the drone's explosive payload rocks a residential neighborhood in the middle of Tel Aviv , where a surveillance camera captures the rest.Benaim is an NYPD detective who lives and works in Tel Aviv .

"There was a lot of blood in the apartment," Benaim said, translating for her from Hebrew. "She thought it was from the cat so she was looking for the cat. She thought it was the cat.... She realized it's her."It was all at the hands of Iran-backed Houthi rebels, who launched the drone from Yemen.Once over the sea, undetected by any air defense system, it made a sharp right turn, straight into Tel Aviv.

And if this whole scenario wasn't sobering enough, at the end of the block sits the U.S. Embassy, with an American flag flying outside.Detective Benaim is assigned to the NYPD's Intelligence Bureau."Nobody's safe," he said. "It can happen here, it can happen in Jerusalem, it can happen in Haifa, it can happen in New York City."

"The hope would be the capability wouldn't be responsive to some terrible incident happening," said Weiner, "that we would be able to do it in anticipation of and prevent something from manifesting here."
