Emanuel (Mannie) Fabian is The Times of Israel's military correspondent
The military announces it will hold a test of the warning siren systems in a number of communities in southern Israel tomorrow.
The Israel Defense Forces says the test is meant to ensure that the alarm system is working properly.
The alarms will sound in Bnei Netzarim at 3 p.m., in Naveh at 3:25 p.m. and in Zru’a at 6 p.m. for 30 seconds, and then for 15 seconds in Avshalom and Sde Avraham at 4 p.m., Kissufim at 4:40 p.m., Kfar Maimon at 5:20 p.m., Or Haner at 6:35 p.m. and Erez at 7 p.m.
In the case of an actual attack, the sirens will sound twice, according to the IDF.
