STORYLINE
The Israeli military said its “Iron Dome” rocket-defence system shot down an incoming projectile bound for Tel Aviv on Saturday.
Footage from Associated Press Television News showed a plume of smoke emanating from an Iron Dome battery deployed in Tel Aviv followed by a flash of light overhead as the rocket is intercepted.
People huddled along Tel Aviv’s beach front boardwalk cheered as the interception took place.
It’s the third successive day that Gaza militants have fired rockets at Tel Aviv, Israel’s bustling commercial and cultural capital.
Israel said its Iron Dome system had intercepted nearly 250 rockets since a round of fighting broke out on Wednesday.
