IDF Spokesman Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari said Iran’s missile attack on the country will not remain unanswered.
“We are on heightened alert on defense and offensive, we will protect the citizens of Israel. This [missile] fire will have consequences. We have plans, and we will act in the time and place that we choose,” he explained.
He also ensured that there are no additional threats heading toward Israel from Iran currently, indicating that the missile attack is over.
Residents were notified a short while ago that they can leave bomb shelters, after an hour.
“During the defense, we carried out quite a few interceptions. There are some impacts in the center and areas in the south of the country,” Hagari said.
“At this stage we are still carrying out an assessment [of the attack], but we are unaware of casualties,” he adds.
