Army says repeated rocket alarms in northern towns false alarms

Emanuel (Mannie) Fabian is The Times of Israel's military correspondent

Successive sirens that sounded in the northern communities of Avivim, Yir’on, and Malkia in the past hour were all determined to be false alarms, the military says.

Rocket alarms sounded in the towns eight times between 3:45 and 4:45 p.m.

The army does not say what caused the scares.
