⚠️ ISRAEL UNDER ATTACK - what we know so far:

IDF confirms that dozens of drones have been launched from Iran and are heading toward Israel.

Israeli Air Force is tracking the drones, while noting that they will take several hours to reach the country.

There will be GPS disruptions as the military works to counter the attack.

Sirens will only sound if the drones enter Israeli airspace, at the relevant locations.

The IDF will work to intercept the targets as early as possible.

Initial reports of drone launches from Yemen as well.

BREAKING — IRAN’S UN COUNSEL: “Iran’s military action was in response to the Zionist regime’s aggression against our diplomatic premises in Damascus. The matter can be deemed concluded. However, should the Israeli regime make another mistake, Iran’s response will be considerably more severe. It is a conflict between Iran and the rogue Israeli regime, from which the U.S. MUST STAY AWAY!”

"A short while ago, Iran launched missiles from its territory toward the territory of the State of Israel," Hagari says.

"I remind you that no matter where the threat is launched from, when an alarm sounds you must enter the shelter and wait there for no less than ten minutes. We will update in real-time if you are required to stay there for a longer period," he says.

He says Israel's air defense array is "fully operational and is intercepting threats wherever required, even at this very moment. "

"At this time, numerous IAF planes are in the air, ready to counter any threat," Hagari says.

"You may hear explosions from interceptions or debris falling. Since there are a variety of threats, the alerts may be issued across wide areas," he continues.

He urges the public to "refrain from spreading unverified rumors and reports."

"Continue to act responsibly and calmly as you have been and adhere to the instructions. We are strong and capable of handling this event," Hagari says.

The IDF will do whatever it takes to protect the citizens of the State of Israel," he says, adding that he will provide another update in an hour.
