ISTANBUL

The Israeli army on early Saturday said that it detected a fresh wave of missiles fired from Iran toward Israel.

Missile alerts were triggered across the country, and warning sirens sounded, along with alerts on mobile applications to report attacks.

All civilians were urged to move to protected areas and remain there until further notice.

In occupied East Jerusalem, loud explosions were heard in the sky.

A statement issued by the Israeli army noted that Israel's air defense systems were activated immediately upon detection of the attack.

In addition, an Anadolu correspondent reported that loud explosions were heard in Jordanian airspace as Iranian missiles were intercepted and destroyed.
