Israeli Military Says Two Projectiles Fired from Gaza, One Intercepted

JERUSALEM, Sept 21 (VoM): The Israeli army reported on Sunday that two projectiles were launched from northern Gaza, with one intercepted by air defense systems and the other landing in southern Israel.

“Following the sirens that sounded a short while ago in the areas of Lakhish and Ashdod, two projectiles were launched from the northern Gaza Strip,” the military said in a statement.

According to the army, the air force successfully intercepted one of the projectiles, while the second landed in an open area. No casualties or damage were reported.

The incident comes amid heightened regional tensions, with continued clashes between Israel and Palestinian factions in Gaza despite international calls for restraint.
