Thankfully, there were no injuries, but the IDF just intercepted a Hezbollah missile aimed at Tel Aviv, which is a first in the recent rising escalations with this terror group on the northern border. The Times of Israel tells us more:

Hezbollah fired a surface-to-surface missile at Tel Aviv early Wednesday morning, setting off sirens in the city and surrounding area, the first time that the Lebanese terror group has gotten a rocket close to Israel’s central hub.

The IDF said it intercepted the missile using the David’s Sling defense system. There were no reports of injuries or damage. An hour later, the military said it had struck the Hezbollah launcher used to fire the missile, in southern Lebanon’s Nafakhiyeh.

Hezbollah claimed that it had targeted the Mossad headquarters near Herzliya, a town near Tel Aviv, with a “Qader 1” ballistic missile.
