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

A surface-to-surface missile launched from “the eastern direction” set off sirens across central Israel a short while ago, the IDF says.

According to the military, the ballistic missile impacted an open area, causing no injuries.

It is unclear which country the missile was launched from, but previous attacks from Iraq have been described by the IDF as from the east.
