Israel takes measures to disrupt GPS-navigated drones or missiles that Iran or its proxies might fire at the country, causing traffic delays and disruptions in Tel Aviv.

A direct Iranian strike on an Israeli city would be a first and mark a major escalation of hostilities, risking the conflict widening into a regional war. For months, the military has been interfering with navigational signals in northern Israel and the Red Sea port city of Eilat. Both have come under frequent rocket and drone fire from militants in Lebanon and Yemen.Israel Defense Forces Spokesman Daniel Hagari acknowledged on Thursday evening that the military was responsible for the GPS disruption, the first time that step has been applied to the Tel Aviv area during the six months of the Israel-Hamas war.

Israel and Hamas have been at war since the Gaza-based militant group invaded Israel on Oct. 7, killing 1,200 people and taking around 250 hostage. Hamas is designated a terrorist organization by the US and European Union. The judge overseeing the Georgia election interference case against Donald Trump and others rejected on Thursday arguments by the former president that the indictment seeks to criminalize political speech protected by the First Amendment.
