No missiles or projectile shrapnel struck Israeli territory during Iran’s attack on Jordan’s southern city of Aqaba, the IDF says.

Explosions had been heard in the neighboring city of Eilat at the southern tip of Israel, and videos showed plumes of smoke rising from the mountains that separate Eilat from Aqaba.

The Eilat Municipality says it has not located any impact sites nor received any reports of injuries or damage following the missile fire.
