The Magen David Adom emergency service reported early Friday that no casualties were initially recorded following overnight missile fire from Iran that targeted central Israel.

Israeli media said interceptor fragments from air defenses fell in several cities across the Dan region, including Ramat Gan, Petach Tikvah, Givat Shmuel and Bnei Brak, causing property damage.

Air raid sirens were also heard across the Sharon region and Samaria after multiple launches believed to include at least one missile with a cluster warhead.

Separately, sirens were activated overnight in Kiryat Shmona and Metula following Hezbollah rocket fire from Lebanon, hours after a drone infiltration alert in the Western Galilee.

The Home Front Command issued warnings of possible hostile aircraft in the area throughout the night.

Iran-backed Houthi terrorists announced on Thursday that they had carried out a fourth missile strike targeting Israel, shortly after the Israel Defense Forces said it detected a launch from Yemen that triggered sirens in the Jerusalem area.

No injuries were reported.
