Israel has launched a preemptive attack on Iran, Defense Minister Katz says; sirens sound across Israel
Israel has launched a preemptive attack on Iran, Defense Minister Israel Katz says.
Katz says he declared an “immediate state of emergency throughout the entire country.”
“The State of Israel has launched a preemptive strike against Iran to remove threats to the State of Israel,” he says.
Meanwhile, sirens sound across Israel as the IDF Home Front Command warns civilians to stay close to bomb shelters.
The message says that “due to the security situation,” civilians should ensure they know what the optimal protected shelter near them is and avoid non-essential travel.
The IDF says the “proactive alert” is intended to prepare the public for the possibility of missile fire toward our territory.”
The army says that as of now, there is no need to enter shelters.
