The Israeli army Home Front Command is denying access to a security alarm system for fear of Iranian infiltration, causing distress among northern Israeli communities, Ynet reported on Thursday.
The Israeli army has recently disabled the system that alerts first responders and local leaders in northern Israeli communities to potential missile strike impact zones.
The move comes as hostilities along Israel’s northern border have continued, despite a three-week ceasefire, with the Israeli army carrying out daily strikes in southern Lebanon and Hezbollah responding.
According to the report, the Israeli army fears that Iranian intelligence could infiltrate the system to gather information on precise missile impact locations, in order to improve the accuracy and effectiveness of future strikes.
The reporting on missile impact sites in Israel has been under strict military censorship regulations, which have intensified since the Israel–Iran war in June 2025.
