Earlier, sirens sounded in Haifa and several other cities in northern Israel triggered by a rocket fired from Lebanon.
On the hill of Haifa, where the journalists send their responses, sirens can be heard and in the background explosions from the interceptions.
According to the IDF, the missile was successfully intercepted by air defenses.
The widespread use of sirens was due to interception attempts and fears of falling debris.

Halevi: Israel must continue to hit her
The chief of staff of Israel’s armed forces said tonight that Lebanon’s armed Shiite group Hezbollah has lost weapons, operatives and its leader to Israeli strikes and that Israel must continue to hit it hard.
“It has lost its leader and we must continue to hit Hezbollah hard,” Herchi Halevi said.
Over 1,000 Lebanese dead and 6,000 injured
According to Lebanon’s health ministry, today’s strikes killed 32 people in the Ain Deleb region in the south and at least another 25 in Baalbek-Hermel in the east. In the previous two days, 14 rescuers were also killed.
According to the ministry, more than 1,000 Lebanese have been killed and 6,000 injured in the past two weeks. It was not specified how many of them are civilians. The government says a million people, or nearly a fifth of the country’s population, have been displaced.
Israeli drones flew over Beirut overnight and continued for most of the day, with loud explosions from fresh airstrikes echoing through the capital.
