The ballistic missile launched yesterday by Hezbollah at central Israel carried a 500-kilogram warhead, according to the terror group.

In a short video boasting about the capabilities of the “Qader-1,” Hezbollah says it has a range of 190 kilometers.

The missile was intercepted by Israel’s medium-range David’s Sling air defense system, and no damage or injuries were caused.

Hezbollah claimed to have targeted the Mossad headquarters near Herzliya in the attack.
