Incoming rocket sirens are sounding in central Israel following rocket fire from the Gaza Strip.
The alerts are activated in some areas of Tel Aviv, as well as Holon, Rishon Lezion, Bat Yam, and other central towns.
The IDF confirms that several rockets were launched from Gaza, but says further details are under investigation.
There are no immediate reports of injuries in the attack.
The IDF warned yesterday that Hamas would likely carry out rocket fire, including at central Israel, on the first anniversary of the October 7 massacre.
