Back in Israel, air sirens sounded several times across the day as rockets were fired from Gaza and Lebanon and a surface-to-surface missile from Yemen was intercepted by the Iron Dome later in the day — a reminder that Israel is still in the midst of an expanding war.
IDF said on Monday that sirens sounded in central Israel after several projectile launches were identified, crossing into Israeli territory, 1. missiles fired by Hezbollah from Lebanon. 2. projectiles had also been fired by Hamas from Gaza. 3. and a surface-to-surface missile fired by Houthis from Yemen
Hezbollah later confirmed it had targeted a military intelligence unit in suburbs of Tel Aviv. "A missile launch operation [was carried out on] the Glilot base of the military intelligence unit 8200 located in the suburbs of Tel Aviv," the group said in a statement.
The Israeli Air Force said that following the alerts in central Israel, five launches were detected that crossed from Lebanon and "some of the projectiles were intercepted by the IAF", in a post on social media platform X.
They said that the rest "fell into an open area" There were no immediate reports of damage or injury.
