The Israeli army said that missiles have been fired from Iran towards Israeli territory, Al Jazeera reported.
“The defence systems are working to intercept the threat. You must enter the protected areas upon receiving the alert, and remain there until further notice,” the military warned citizens.
According to reports in Israel, up to 10 missiles have been launched from Iran.
Israeli medical and emergency services have not reported treating any injuries. There is also no visual confirmation of any strikes so far.
The area in Israel where alarms have been triggered is extensive, stretching beyond the boundaries of the larger Tel Aviv district.
Meanwhile, Israel’s military said that “most” of the missiles launched from Iran have been intercepted. It didn’t say if any penetrated air defence systems and landed in the country.
“In the last hour, several missiles were launched at the State of Israel from Iran, most of which were intercepted. The Home Front Command’s instructions must continue to be followed,” the air force said in a statement.
On the other hand, Footage verified by Al Jazeera shows massive plumes of smoke rising from several areas in Iran’s Isfahan province.
The visuals come shortly after Israel said it had carried out a wave of attacks on western Iran.
