Dear citizens, a short time ago the Home Front Command activated life-saving instructions in large areas in the center of the country, instructing that people stay near protected areas. This was due to rocket fire from Lebanon. Iran’s threat is being monitored seriously. I ask the public to obey the directives of the Home Front Command.

The shooting from Iran may be on a wide scale. You are required to enter the protected area and remain in it until instructed otherwise. I would like to repeat that, for safety, you are required to enter the protected area and remain in it until further notice. The protection is not hermetic. I repeat, the protection is not hermetic.

Please stay calm and act responsibly; these are life-saving instructions for you and your families. I will continue to provide updates here all evening, with every development.
