IDF Spokesman Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari in a press statement says Nevatim Airbase is running as usual following the Iranian missile and drone attack.
He says the “attack was foiled almost without [any of the projectiles] entering Israeli airspace.”
He says the damage caused to infrastructure at Nevatim was “minor.”
He says four missiles struck the base: one near a runway, two in open areas, and one near a building, causing slight damage to it.
He says repairs will be made in the coming days.
