JERUSALEM, March 10, 2026 (BSS/AFP) - Sirens sounded in Jerusalem and central Israel on Tuesday, after the military warned of incoming missiles from Iran on the 11th day of the US-Israeli war against the Islamic republic. "Defensive systems are operating to intercept the threat," the military said in a statement, shortly before AFP journalists heard at least one blast from Jerusalem. First responders say 11 people had been killed and dozens injured in Israel since Iran began firing missiles at the country in retaliation for joint US-Israeli strikes. Shrapnel killed one man and seriously wounded another in central Israel on Monday, first responders said, as blasts rocked the area after the military said missiles were fired from Iran. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warned that Israel's military offensive against Iran was "not done yet" in a statement published on Tuesday, after US President Donald Trump's insisted that the conflict would be over "soon."
