The IDF confirms that damage was caused at the Israeli Air Force’s Ramat David Airbase during Iran’s ballistic missile fire on Israel earlier this week.

Yesterday, low-resolution satellite imagery showed what appeared to be an impact at a warehouse at the base.

The Israeli Air Force is still investigating what struck the warehouse, although preliminary findings point to falling fragments following an interception of an Iranian ballistic missile, rather than a direct impact.

According to the military, no equipment was damaged, no injuries were caused, and there was no harm to the operational functioning of the airbase.
