Israel’s military said air defences responded to two waves of Iranian missile fire early Thursday (April 2), with media reporting several light injuries in the Tel Aviv area.

Police said officers were called to “several” impact sites in central Israel, with media reports putting the number at nine.

Four people were lightly wounded, the reports said, citing medics.

Israeli media attributed the damage across a relatively wide area to the use of cluster munitions, which explode mid-air and scatter bomblets.- AFP
