A rocket alarm was triggered early this morning in the Israeli coastal metropolis of Tel Aviv and other cities in the country. The sirens were wailing in practically the entire center of Israel, as the Israeli army announced on the online platform X. A rocket fired from Lebanon was intercepted over the greater Tel Aviv area. No further details of the rocket attack were initially provided.

The last time a missile alert was triggered in Tel Aviv was at the end of May, at that time due to an attack by the Islamist group Hamas. After that, the alarm sirens only sounded in other parts of the country. It is also the first time since the massacre on October 7 last year and the subsequent start of the Gaza war that a rocket from Lebanon has reached the greater Tel Aviv area.
Israel's army is involved in armed conflicts with the Hezbollah militia in Lebanon and its allied terrorist organization Hamas in the Gaza Strip, both of which are supported by Iran.
