Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari, Israeli army spokesperson said "A number of Iranian missiles fell inside Israeli territory causing minor damage to a military base with no casualties. Only one little girl has been hurt and we hope she will be well."
In a separate statement, the Israeli army said that "dozens of surface-to-surface missile launches" were identified approaching Israeli territory, the majority of which were intercepted before they crossed into Israel.Dozens of Israeli fighter jets are currently operating to intercept "all aerial threats" approaching Israel, the statement added.
