After U.S. President Donald Trump announced a two-week suspension of bombing tied to Iran reopening the Strait of Hormuz, Iran launched a series of missile barrages at Israel early Wednesday, triggering sirens across central, southern and northern parts of the country.
The first salvo set off alerts in the Jerusalem area and the Shfela lowlands in central Israel. Military officials said air defense systems intercepted the missile, and Magen David Adom said crews were dispatched to a site where interceptor debris was reported. No injuries were reported.
Shortly afterward, another barrage was fired toward southern Israel, with sirens sounding in the Be'er Sheva area and communities near the Gaza border. Air defense systems intercepted the missile, and rescue forces were sent to search for interceptor debris. No casualties were reported.
