The Israeli military calls on residents of southern and central Israel to remain close to bomb shelters amid a massive barrage of rockets from the Gaza Strip over the past half an hour.
“The public in the south and center of the country are urged to stay near protected areas and follow the instructions of the Home Front Command,” the Israel Defense Forces says.
