The IDF says the missile fire from Iran is ongoing.
“You are asked to stay in a protected area until further notice,” the military says in a statement.
It adds that explosions heard across the country are interceptions or impacts.
Multiple impact sites have been reported of either shrapnel or rocket impacts in Tel Aviv, near the Dead Sea, in the south and in the Sharon region.
Magen David Adom says there are no immediate reports of injuries. Eli Bin, the head of MDA, says hundreds of missiles are being fired. “We have no reports of injuries,” he tells Channel 12.
