Residents received an alert on the Home Front Command app about a hostile aircraft in the Ram Ridge area, according to journalist Adir Lakhim. The IDF says it is investigating the report.
At 23:18 Jerusalem, journalist Adir Lakhim reported that residents in the Ram Ridge area received a hostile aircraft alert via the Home Front Command app. The IDF said it is investigating the report. This is the latest in a rapid sequence of alerts. At 23:14, the Home Front Command issued a broader alert for northern Israel, and within the same minute, a specific alert for a hostile aircraft in Ram Ridge was reported via the app. The Zioneer reported the initial alert at 23:16. The new report from Lakhim corroborates the earlier alerts, but no confirmation of an actual aircraft intrusion has been provided.
The Ram Ridge alerts are part of a wider pattern of aerial intrusion alerts in northern Israel in recent days. On Sunday, sirens sounded in Ghajar and Margaliot, as The Zioneer reported. Earlier this week, interceptions were reported in the Emekim region. Separately, unverified reports of interceptions over Iraq were noted tonight at 22:30 Jerusalem.
The IDF has not yet confirmed the nature of the alert. The source of the alert — whether a drone, missile, or false alarm — remains unverified. The investigation is ongoing.
