Approximately three launches were reported toward the Galilee Finger area, Channel 12 says. One was fired toward Metula and two toward Misgav Am. No reports of casualties or interceptions were available as of 08:45 Jerusalem.
At 08:44 Jerusalem, Channel 12's Guy Varon reported approximately three launches toward the Finger of the Galilee: one toward Metula and two toward Misgav Am. As of 08:45 Jerusalem, no casualties, interceptions, or impacts were known. The report follows a sequence of alerts earlier this morning: sirens warning of a hostile aircraft intrusion sounded in Metula at 08:30 Jerusalem (The Zioneer, version 1), expanded to Misgav Am at 08:33 (version 2), and a rocket warning was issued at 08:34 for one location in the Upper Galilee and Golan—simultaneous with a second hostile aircraft alert in Misgav Am (version 4). The IDF is checking the alerts, according to an earlier report at 08:36 Jerusalem (The Zioneer background item). The nature of the three launches—whether they were projectiles, drones, or something else—remains unspecified in the Channel 12 report, and no official IDF confirmation of the tally or classification has been published.
The Galilee Finger has seen repeated alerts in recent days. On June 9, Channel 12 reported that rocket alerts in the Upper Galilee involved projectiles that fell short of Israeli territory. On June 10, three interceptions were reported over the Upper Galilee. On June 11, sirens sounded in the area on a suspected drone infiltration at 09:00 Jerusalem, and the IDF separately said two launches from Lebanon fell near troops in southern Lebanon, triggering alerts in the north. On June 12, sirens in the Finger of the Galilee were triggered on a suspected drone infiltration at 04:51 Jerusalem, followed by another set of drone infiltration alerts across the Galilee and frontline areas at 22:19 Jerusalem (all The Zioneer background items). In multiple cases during that period, the IDF said details were under investigation or described some launches as falling short of Israeli territory. Residents of Metula and Misgav Am were instructed to treat the warnings seriously; the Home Front Command had not changed the civil-defense status as of the latest report.
What remains open: whether the three launches correspond to the earlier hostile aircraft infiltrations or are a separate event; whether any of the launches were intercepted; and whether the IDF will confirm the tally and origin. The Channel 12 report provides a specific count but has not been corroborated by an official source as of the dispatch time.
