IDF: Sirens in north caused by Iron Dome interceptor launched at target entering from Lebanon

Emanuel (Mannie) Fabian is The Times of Israel's military correspondent

The Israel Defense Forces says incoming rocket sirens that sounded in the northern community of Mattat a short while ago were caused by an Iron Dome interceptor launch.

The IDF says the Iron Dome missile was fired at a suspicious target that entered Israeli airspace from Lebanon. It is unclear what the target was, and whether it was actually intercepted.

Earlier today there was a false alarm in the northern community of Misgav Am.
