The IDF added, "There are no changes in the Home Front Command defensive guidelines. In the case of a change to the guidelines, we will update the public accordingly."
On Friday, the Houthi movement fired a lethal drone into Tel Aviv, resulting in the death of an Israeli and at least 10 injured and severe damage to buildings. The strike took place near the U.S. consulate building in Tel Aviv.
