Israel's military said Wednesday, March 10, that it detected multiple salvos of missiles heading towards the country from Iran and had activated air defenses, as it pressed a "wave" of strikes against Iran and Lebanon.
"A short while ago, the IDF identified missiles launched from Iran toward the territory of the State of Israel. Defensive systems are operating to intercept the threat," the military said on its official Telegram account. AFP journalists heard air raid sirens sounding in Jerusalem and the sound of explosions in the distance.
Israel's Magen David Adom emergency services reported no immediate injuries following the missile fire, but said its teams were treating "a small number of people who were injured on their way to protected areas."
Israeli broadcaster Channel 12 reported several injuries from the Iranian strikes near Tel Aviv.
