Rocket sirens that sounded in the Upper Galilee a short while ago were triggered by an interceptor missile launched at a “suspicious aerial target,” the IDF says.

According to the military, the target was later determined to have been a “false identification.”

Sirens had sounded due to fears of falling shrapnel from the interceptor.
