In a press statement, Israeli Army Spokesperson Daniel Hagari announced that dozens of drones that took off from Iran were heading towards Israel.
Stating that the Israeli air and naval forces are tracking drones that could take hours to reach Israel, Hagari said that there may be disruptions in the GPS system across the country.
Hagari stated that the attack alarms in Israel will only sound when the drones are heading towards targets, and that they will try to intercept the drones as soon as possible.
Before Hagari’s announcement, Israeli state television KAN reported that Iran had launched dozens of drone attacks on Israel.
Israeli authorities assessed the attacks on military targets. It was reported that the Israeli war cabinet and then the security cabinet will meet tonight at the Defense Ministry in Tel Aviv.
