Sirens were activated Sunday morning shortly after 5:30 a.m. in central Israel following launches from Iran.
Most of the launches were intercepted, while the rest fell in open areas. No injuries were reported, except for four cases of people who were injured on their way to protected spaces. Fire and Rescue teams were called to the scene in an open area in central Israel, where a fire broke out as a result of shrapnel.
Around 6:15 a.m., launches toward southern Israel were identified and sirens were activated in the area. The projectiles were intercepted and no injuries were reported.
Later, sirens were activated in central Israel without prior warning following a launch from Lebanon that was intercepted. Shortly before 6:40 a.m., additional launches from Iran towards southern Israel were identified.
During the night, sirens were activated three times within minutes due to launches from Iran.
The sirens were heard in central Israel, the Shfela region, the Sharon region, and Samaria, and later also in the Netanya area and the Beit She’an Valley.
Most of the launches were intercepted, while the rest fell in open areas. Interception fragments fell in Holon, and a fire broke out at the scene as a result. Police from the Central District are handling the incident.
MDA paramedics provided medical treatment to two people at the scene in Holon: An approximately 80-year-old man in very light condition with injuries from glass shards, and an approximately 80-year-old woman in light condition showing signs of smoke inhalation.
In addition, MDA teams treated several people at the scene who were suffering from anxiety.
In other areas of the country where sirens were heard, no injuries were reported.
About an hour earlier, sirens were also activated in Eilat following a launch from Iran. The missile was intercepted and no injuries were reported.
In addition, sirens were activated several times in northern Israel following launches from Lebanon.
Shortly after 5:30 a.m., launches from Iran again triggered sirens in central Israel. There were no reports of injuries from impacts, but Magen David Adom paramedics treated four cases of people who were injured on their way to shelter.
