IDF to test rocket siren in Jerusalem suburb tomorrow
The IDF says it will test the incoming rocket alert sirens in the Jerusalem suburb of Mevasseret Zion on Monday morning.
At 11:05 a.m., sirens will sound in the town and likely in the nearby communities of Beit Nekofa and Motza Illit, the army says.
In the event of a real rocket launch, the sirens will sound twice.
The IDF says the test is part of the military’s regular training schedule and is meant to maintain the “fitness and readiness of the troops.”
