Iron Dome Defense Goes Up in Tel Aviv
An Iron Dome anti-missile system battery has been installed in metropolitan Tel Aviv.
The system, which was installed on Thursday, is expected to remain in place for several days, as it calibrates itself to the area.
The battery has previously been installed at Sderot, Ashkelon and Ashdod.
Israel and the United States will hold Austere Challenge 12, a joint ballistic missiles exercise, at the end of October.

I’m an avid Forward reader because it ticks so many of my essential boxes: excellent journalism, Jewish focus and diverse viewpoints. In today’s political climate, what I most appreciate is the Forward’s independence — made possible by the generosity of its membership.
