(JNS) The IDF early on Wednesday, Sept. 25 intercepted a surface-to-surface ballistic missile fired by Hezbollah terrorists in Lebanon at central Israel. The Iranian proxy claimed that the target of the attack was the headquarters of Israel’s Mossad intelligence agency.

Sirens were activated across the Gush Dan and Sharon regions, including in Tel Aviv, amid the intensifying conflict with the Iranian terror proxy.

The Magen David Adom emergency service said it had not received any reports of injuries in the attack.

The projectile was reportedly downed by the David’s Sling system, which supplements the defense provided by the Iron Dome, Arrow 2 and Arrow 3.

David’s Sling can intercept “large-caliber rockets, short-range ballistic missiles and other developing threats,” according to the Israeli Air Force.

The IDF Home Front Command said there was no change in directives for residents of central Israel, and that schools would open as usual.

Shortly after, the Israeli Air Force struck the launcher from which the missile was fired in the area of Nafakhiyeh, located some 12 miles to the east of Tyre in Lebanon.

Hezbollah took responsibility for the launch, claiming the target of the attack was the headquarters of the Mossad. “The location is responsible for the explosion of beepers and communication devices and the elimination of senior officials,” the group said.

Hezbollah blames Jerusalem for last week’s series of deadly pager and walkie-talkie explosions across Lebanon that killed dozens of terrorists and wounded thousands more.

On Monday afternoon, a Hezbollah terror rocket hit near the Israeli city of Ariel in central Shomron.

The rocket struck just outside a pre-military academy in Peduel, located east of the security barrier in northern Shomron and less than 10 miles from Israel’s central region.
