Many residents of Tel Aviv will be quite tired at work Thursday as they were awakened during the night to sirens wailing in the Gush Dan area.

Sirens were heard at about 2:45AM in Tel Aviv, Bat Yam, and Holon. After a period of time, the IDF Spokesman’s Office released a calming message, that the sirens were a false alarm and the country was not being attacked with rockets as many feared to be the case.
