ISRAEL TO BAN FIBER-OPTIC AND SIM-ENABLED DRONES: Defense Minister Israel Katz is expected to sign an order Sunday banning fiber-optic cable-guided and SIM-card drones from Israeli airspace for six months, citing concrete intelligence and growing threats, including drone attacks, attempts to harm senior officials, criminal use, intelligence gathering and smuggling. The temporary measure was approved by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Katz at a security cabinet meeting. Security agencies are exempt, as are drones approved in advance by the Civil Aviation Authority.
