Iran launches drones at Israel in retaliatory attack after consulate strike in Syria
Air raid sirens and loud booms sounded across Israel as Iran on Saturday evening launched dozens of drones at Israel in a retaliatory attack, Israeli authorities said.
Many missiles and drones were fired from Iran towards Israel, Israel Defense Forces spokesperson Daniel Hagari reported, saying that the vast majority were intercepted. Hagari, though, indicated an unknown number of missiles fell in Israeli territory.
It took several hours before the drones reached Israeli airspace, which Israel closed at midnight local time. Alerts started to sound across Israel close to 2 a.m. local time, the IDF said. Alarms went off in southern Israel, by the Dead Sea, in Jerusalem, and the Shomron area. Loud booms could be heard
In a statement, Israel Defense Forces said that Iran launched unmanned aerial vehicles "from within its territory toward Israel."
