The IDF issued shorter-than-usual warning times<\/a> for Iranian missile attacks targeting central Israel on Friday evening.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In one attack, an advanced warning was sent at 7:16 pm, and sirens sounded just a few minutes later at 7:19 pm. At 8:40 pm, another warning was issued, with sirens sounding just a minute later at 8:41 pm. In a third incident, an advanced warning was sent at 9:54 pm, and sirens sounded two minutes later at 9:56 pm.<\/p>\n

Unlike rockets fired from Gaza and Lebanon<\/a>, Israelis receive advanced warnings for Iranian missile attacks due to the longer time it takes for missiles to arrive after launches are detected. In general, advanced warning times for Iranian ballistic missile attacks<\/a> are usually issued at least five minutes before sirens sound, and often even further in advance.<\/p>\n

The IDF Home Front Command<\/a> explained that while they cannot guarantee a long warning time, the general advice is to immediately move to a protected area upon receiving an advanced warning, and not to take the threat lightly. “We cannot commit to a set warning time. There are only a few minutes,” said one spokesperson on Friday.<\/p>\n

The IDF did not explain the reason for Friday’s short warning times.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The IDF issued shorter-than-usual warning times for Iranian missile attacks targeting central Israel on Friday evening.\u00a0 In one…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":326498,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[96587,17467,19345,85,46,43,157282,157283,70],"class_list":{"0":"post-326497","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-israel","8":"tag-arrow-3","9":"tag-ballistic-missile","10":"tag-home-front-command","11":"tag-il","12":"tag-israel","13":"tag-news","14":"tag-operation-epic-fury","15":"tag-operation-roaring-lion","16":"tag-rocket-sirens"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/326497","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=326497"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/326497\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/326498"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=326497"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=326497"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=326497"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
