Israel sounds rocket alert in northern Carmel, no word of casualties

The Israeli military sounded sirens in the northern Carmel region, warning of possible incoming rockets or drones, but there were no immediate reports of any casualties, according to Reuters.

The Carmel, near the port city of Haifa, is about 145 km (90 miles) from the Gaza Strip, where an Israel-Hamas war is now in its third week. It is also 42 km (26 miles) from the border with Lebanon, across which Israel has exchanged fire with Hezbollah.
