In Abu Nuseir, the drone reportedly went down near commercial shops, PSD said, adding that an investigation has been opened into the cause of the crash.

Relevant authorities moved to the scene and began dealing with and investigating the incident.
In a separate incident, PSD reported that a suspicious object fell on the roof of a school in Mafraq Governorate. There was no fire or injuries, as there were no students present at the time, only administrative staff, who evacuated the building upon hearing the sound, it said.
The PSD urged the public not to approach unidentified or suspicious objects, warning they may pose serious risks. Citizens are advised to report such findings immediately by calling the unified emergency number, 911, to allow specialized agencies to respond appropriately.
Since the start of Iran-Israel air war nearly a week ago, several flying objects have been spotted over several parts of the Kingdom, believed to be Iranian missiles and drones launched towards its arch-foe Israel.
