JERUSALEM, March 25, 2026 (BSS/AFP) - Israel's military warned late Tuesday that Iran had fired a new salvo of missiles towards the country and that anti-missile defences were active after a day of more than a dozen missile alerts.

Following the warning, sirens sounded in Jerusalem and a blast was heard in the city, while a loud explosion was also heard in the skies over the West Bank city of Jericho, AFP correspondents said.

"A short while ago, the IDF identified missiles launched from Iran toward the territory of the State of Israel. Defensive systems are operating to intercept the threat," the Israeli military said on Telegram.

The Magen David Adom (MDA) emergency services said on Telegram that "following the shooting at the State of Israel: At this stage, no casualties are known."

"MDA medics and paramedics went out to treat a man who was injured on the way to" shelter, it added.

By late Tuesday, the Israeli military had issued more than a dozen alerts warning of incoming Iranian missiles since midnight.

A woman was killed in northern Israel Tuesday following rocket fire from Lebanon, where Israeli forces are fighting Iran-backed militant group Hezbollah.

The Israeli military said on Tuesday it would keep hitting Iran's ability to make and launch missiles, as more than a dozen people were injured during Iranian attacks throughout the day.
