A surface-to-surface missile launched from Lebanon struck an open area in central Israel a short while ago, the IDF says.

Sirens did not sound in any towns, according to protocol as the missile was heading for an open area, the military adds.

The missile apparently landed in the sea, though the IDF says further details are under investigation.

Residents of central Israel, including in the Tel Aviv area, reported hearing a loud blast, apparently from the missile impact.

There are no reports of injuries.
