Missiles and drones fired by Iran have arrived in Israel with multiple blasts ripping through the country’s capital, Jerusalem.
OsunDailyNG recalls that the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, IRGC had launched a direct attack on Israel.
The attack, according to reports, was in retaliation for the killing of its men and two generals earlier in the month.
Israel was accused of launching attacks against Iran’s consulate in Damascus, Syria, resulting in the killing of its men.
Following the launching of the drones, Israel’s military on Saturday notified residents of high-risk areas to move into bomb shelters for safety when the drones arrive.
A CNN correspondent reporting from Jerusalem said no impact of the drones was felt through the destruction of facilities but that the blasts were a result of the drones being intercepted by Israel’s aero-defence system.
There are reports that France, US and UK are assisting Israel in shooting down the drones.
According to Israeli Army radio, more than 100 drones were intercepted outside Israeli territory with assistance from the US and UK.
