The ballistic missile launched from Iran in the latest attack on southern Israel was likely intercepted, according to initial military assessments.
There are no reports of direct impacts or injuries in the attack, the third since midnight, medics say.
The IDF Home Front Command says civilians in areas where sirens sounded can now leave bomb shelters.
