The ballistic missile launched by Iran at southern Israel a short while ago was intercepted, according to preliminary military assessments.

Footage posted to social media indicates an exoatmospheric interception of the missile by the long-range Arrow 3 air defense system.

No injuries are reported, in the eighth Iranian attack on Israel since this morning.

Sirens had sounded in Dimona and nearby towns in the Negev Desert.
