Rocket Strikes and Air Raids: What We Know So Far
The Israeli military has confirmed that the rockets were launched from the Gaza Strip, sparking a flurry of air raid sirens across several major cities in northern Israel, including Tel Aviv and Haifa. “We will not tolerate any form of aggression towards Israel’s sovereignty,” a spokesperson for the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) stated in a press release.
As the situation unfolds, residents in the affected areas are being instructed to remain indoors and follow local authorities’ instructions. The IDF has deployed its air defense systems to intercept and destroy any incoming projectiles.
