For the third time this morning, rocket sirens that sounded near the southern community of Nir Am, close to the border with the Gaza Strip, are determined to be false alarms, the IDF says.
Such “false identifications” of rockets are generally a result of Israeli activity in Gaza or close to the border, such as explosions that cause debris to fly and are mistakenly identified as projectiles heading into Israel.
