Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari, spokesperson for Israel Defense Forces, issued a video statement Saturday night reiterating instructions to Israeli civilians on staying in sheltered places, APA reports.
“I remind you that no matter where the threat is launched from, when an alarm sounds you must enter the shelter and wait there for no less than ten minutes,” Hagari said.
“We will update in real-time if you are required to stay there for a longer period. The Aerial Defense Array is fully operational and is intercepting threats wherever required, even at this very moment. At this time, numerous IAF planes are in the air, ready to counter any threat," Hagari continued.
He warned that civilians "may hear explosions from interceptions or debris falling.
"Since there are a variety of threats, the alerts may be issued across wide areas," he said. "Continue to act responsibly and calmly as you have been and adhere to the instructions. We are strong and capable of handling this event.”
Hagari said he would issue further updates shortly.
