IDF: Iran's drone attack "under control," shelter order canceled
Kyiv • UNN
Israel has stated that it is in control of the situation after Iran launched drones. The requirement to stay near bomb shelters has been lifted, but restrictions on gatherings remain in effect.
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) has rescinded an order for Israelis to stay near shelters, saying the Iranian drone attack is "under control", UNN reports, citing The Times of Israel.
Details
The Israel Defense Forces said it is "in control of the situation" after Iran launched at least 100 drones at Israel.
Israeli Air Force fighter jets have been shooting down drones outside of Israel's borders, and so far none have reached the country.
Meanwhile, the Israeli Home Front Command has released an update informing civilians that they no longer need to stay near bomb shelters; however, restrictions on gatherings remain in effect.
Although the IDF says it is in control of the drone attack, it has not yet confirmed that all of them have been shot down.
The Home Front Command will issue additional updates if additional threats are directed at Israel from Iran.
In addition, the IDF claims that the Home Front Command's decision to activate sirens across the country at 3:00 a.m. was based on an assessment that Iran would immediately respond to Israel's strikes, which ultimately did not happen.
Addition
On the night of Friday, June 13, the Israeli Air Force struck Iran. Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz declared a state of emergency across the country.
Israel later confirmed the attack on Iran's nuclear facilities. It was noted that dozens of Israeli aircraft "completed the first phase", which included strikes on dozens of military targets, including nuclear ones, in various regions of Iran.
