Police in central Israel say officials are dealing with three impact sites in the area from a missile volley about 90 minutes ago, reporting that while there was some material damage, there have not been any reports of injuries.
He says firefighters are still putting out a number of blazes sparked by the missile impacts, and police are conducting searches to make sure there are no other impact sites or places where shrapnel caused damage.
“Our focus now is on making sure there are no sites or incidents or injuries that we do not yet know about,” Yarkon District head Tzachi Sharabi tells reporters.
Reports indicate that one missile hit a storage shed near Herzliya, setting it on fire, and another hit a parking lot, where an empty bus went up in flames.

The Magen David Adom rescue service said earlier that it was dealing with five people lightly injured in the parking lot.
There are also scattered reports of damage from falling shrapnel.
