The Israeli military reported that air raid sirens were sounded in northern Israel, saying one incident was resolved and another found to be a false alarm, AFP reports.

“Following the sirens that sounded a short while ago regarding a hostile aircraft infiltration in the area of Kfar Yuval, a suspicious aerial target was identified. The incident has concluded. No injuries were reported,” the Israeli military said, adding that another alert in the Arab al-Aramshe area was a “false identification”.
