12:54PM IL: Sirens sounding at this time in Ashkelon, Ashdod, Yavne, Ofakim, Beersheva, Betar Illit and Jerusalem.� MORE TO FOLLOW.
1:04 PM IL: Authorities now report the sirens heard in Yerushalayim, Betar Illit and Bet Shemesh resulted from siren testing. While this is the radio report, many are questioning if this was indeed the case, why didn�t the IDF Homefront Command notify residents in advance as they do in other areas. The panic that resulted brought about a collapse in cellular service with some cellular providers as well as landline telephones.
1:12PM: Homefront Command official Gili Shinar reports there was NO siren test but the sirens unfortunately sounded due to a malfunction in Jerusalem, Betar Illit, and Bet Shemesh, causing needless panic among many.
There are no injuries being reported in other areas where the sirens sounded, due to rocket attacks. At least four rockets landed in Beersheva, and an unspecified number of rockets landed in the Ofakim, Ashdod, Netivot and Ashkelon areas.
