Israeli military issues new alert over Iranian ballistic missiles aimed at central Israel

CAIRO - 24 March 2026: The Israeli military said it detected another incoming Iranian ballistic missile attack targeting central Israel, including the Tel Aviv area, and warned that sirens were expected to sound shortly.

The alert was issued through the Israeli military’s public warning system as Israel’s air defenses tracked the launch and instructed residents in the affected areas to stay close to protected spaces.

A short time later, Israeli reporting said no injuries were immediately reported, and that one missile was believed to have fallen in an open area, with authorities later indicating people could leave shelters after the immediate threat passed.
