The IDF announced an operation to intercept Iranian missiles

The Israeli military is trying to intercept missiles launched from Iran. This was announced on March 1 by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF).

"Currently, the Israeli Air Force is conducting interception and strike operations where necessary to eliminate the threat," the Telegram channel said.

It is specified that alarms sounded in a number of regions of the country after the detection of missile launches from Tehran towards Tel Aviv. Citizens were advised to strictly follow the instructions of the military rear command. The IDF added that since the protection system does not provide complete security, the population must continue to act according to the established instructions.
