IDF says prepared for rocket fire at Tel Aviv, will call up some reservists
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleIDF spokesman Ronen Manelis says the military has air defense systems in place in case of rocket fire from the Gaza Strip toward the Tel Aviv metropolitan area.
Asked by Channel 13 if the IDF is interested in quickly ending the current round of fighting with Palestinian terror groups in light of the upcoming Eurovision Song Contest, Manelis says he did not hear the term “to end” during consultations today.
He says the IDF is prepared for the fighting to last a few days and will call up some reservists from intelligence and air defense units, as well as the Home Front Command, when Shabbat ends after nightfall this evening.
