ALBAWABA - The Iranian military announced on Monday that it had launched missiles and dozens of drones equipped with anti-fortification warheads toward Israel, media reported on Monday. Israel said that between 10 and 15 missiles were fired.
An Israeli military spokesperson said the army detected missile launches from Iran towards Israel, confirming that defense systems are working to intercept them.
Local Israeli media said that sirens sounded first in northern Israel, including the Galilee area, followed by sirens in central and southern Israel. Furthermore, AFP said that loud blasts were heard in Jerusalem as well.
Magen David Adom (MDA) further mentioned that teams are heading to crash sites, adding that one was reported in an open area in the Lachish area.
On the other hand, Israel launched new attacks on Iran's underground Fordow nuclear site located south of the Iranian capital, a local news outlet confirmed on Monday.
"The aggressor attacked the Fordo nuclear site again," Tasnim news agency said, citing a spokesperson for the crisis management authority in Qom province.
It is worth noting that the United States carried out airstrikes targeting three nuclear sites in Iran: Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan.
Israel Defence Minister Israel Katz said that the Israeli Air Forces are carrying out "unprecedented strikes" on Iran's capital targeting "agencies of government repression".
