Many residents in Israel received a suspicious SMS message, indicating a possible threat of a "terrorist attack in shelters." The distributed message stated: "Urgent warning: Possibility of a terrorist attack in shelters, avoid staying in shelters until further notice." The National Cyber Directorate updated that "in the past hour, fake messages impersonating orefalert are being distributed widely, this is a fraud intended to sow panic. Receiving the message does not harm your phone device, block the sender and do not forward the message."
