But the Magen David Adom emergency services said it received no reports of casualties following the latest round of Iranian fire.
The Israeli military then said it "had struck the missile launcher that launched missiles toward the State of Israel a short while ago."
Before the latest Iranian attack, Israel had announced what it called a "broad wave" of strikes on Tehran, the second such assault launched on Monday.
