Iran launches rockets at Israel
Iran fired a barrage of missiles at Israel, forcing the entire civilian population of the country to be ordered into bomb shelters, the Israel Defense Forces said Tuesday.The government/military has said the response to Iran this time will be harsh. Let's hope they remain true to their word.
The Islamic Republic fired 181 missiles, according to updated reports. No UAVs were launched during the assault.
At 8:26 p.m., the IDF sent out phone alerts saying that at this stage, everyone could leave their protected spaces.
A few minutes later, Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari, the IDF spokesman, said no further threats from Iran at the present time.
Earlier, the IDF stated, “A short while ago, missiles were launched from Iran towards the State of Israel. You are instructed to remain alert and precisely follow the Home Front Command’s instructions.”
The IDF wrote on X/Twitter that “all Israeli civilians” are sheltering from the attack.
Hagari asked Israelis to remain vigilant.
“The air-defense system is fully operational, detecting and intercepting threats wherever necessary, even at this moment,” he said. “However, the defense is not hermetic.”
Three Israeli officials told The New York Times that the feared assault could involve suicide drones and missiles fired towards the Jewish state.
