The Israel Defense Forces announces it will hold a test of the siren systems and emergency preparedness in Herzliya tomorrow.

The sirens will sound in the western part of the city at 10:05 a.m. and in the center of the city and the adjacent Kibbutz Glil Yam at 10:15 a.m.

Residents of the area are asked to enter bomb shelters when they hear the sirens and to ensure that their shelters are well-stocked for an emergency. In the case of an actual attack, the sirens will sound twice, the military says. The drill comes amid the IDF’s monthlong “Chariots of Fire” exercise, involving nearly all units of the military.
