The IDF rejected a Lebanese report on Monday that an IAF fighter jet had been shot down, and said that the army had destroyed an Iranian-made long-range Zelzal missile, which fired into the air and fell back down.

The Zelzal missile is believed to have a range of over 200 kilometers and could, officials said, reach Tel Aviv.

The officials said Israeli aircraft targeted a truck carrying the weapons before they could be launched. The force of the blast sent at least one missile flying into the air, but it fell nearby. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity under military regulations.
