Patricia BullrichMinister of Security, was present at the scene, specifically at the intersection of Avenida de Mayo and Chacabuco. There is also the Argentine Federal Police that works together with other forces to investigate the incident.
“A drone exploded near the Israeli Embassy. I was present to analyze the situationmeet with Ambassador Sela and supervise the necessary measures,” Bullrich said from his Twitter account.
“We bring peace of mind to the population: It was confirmed that it was not an attack, but rather the recklessness of a private user. The investigation continues to clarify what happened,” he said.
Meanwhile, the police detained the owner of the drone, who showed up on his own, along with his lawyer, until the circumstances were clarified. He said he was unaware that the Israeli embassy was in the area.
Meanwhilethe streets remain closed in the surrounding area, for security reasons. According to what they indicate, the object flew over the areabut due to a fault, fell heavily and caught fire.
The main question is What was the drone doing in the area?. What worries the authorities and the embassy most is whether he was carrying out spy taskssuch as taking photos or capturing videos.
