Meanwhile, an interceptor missile was fired at a “suspicious aerial target” over the sea near the northern coastal city of Haifa a short while ago.
The IDF says the target was later confirmed to have been a false identification, meaning not a threat.
There is no fear of a security incident, the military adds.
