Despite the heavy Iranian missile barrage, Israel’s air defense systems, potentially with assistance from foreign forces, appeared to have successfully intercepted most of the rockets. The Magen David Adom (MDA) ambulance service reported that two people were lightly injured from shrapnel near Tel Aviv, and several others were injured while rushing to shelters across the country.

In the aftermath of the missile attack, the Israel Airports Authority announced that Israeli airspace had been temporarily closed, diverting incoming flights to airports outside the country. Airspace was reopened shortly after.
