The occupied city of "Sderot" will no longer be protected by "Israel's" Iron Dome system, the Israeli i24 correspondent reported.
The correspondent who arrived in the occupation settlement less than a kilometer away from the Gaza Strip, said that the city is now a "ghost town" after occupation authorities evacuated its settlers.
She also reported that Israeli forces told i24's crew that the city would no longer be covered by Iron Dome batteries in order to preserve interceptors for targeted areas.

The team was advised to remain near fortified shelters in case of a rocket strike.
The Gaza Strip has seen intense confrontations in recent days, as the occupation's military attempts to circle Gaza City, isolating it from the rest of the Strip.

However, intruding forces have been met with fierce resistance on multiple axes where numerous armored vehicles and forces have been directly hit by the fighter's fire.
In the meantime, the Resistance continues to launch rockets toward occupation cities and settlements.
On Monday, at least 20 incidents of rockets being launched and mortars being fired toward occupied territories.
Al-Qassam Brigades targeted a flurry of areas including Kibbutz "Nirim", the "Nevatim" airbase, "Gush Dan", "Tel Aviv", "Nir Yitzhak", "Ra'im", and occupied Asdod.
Heavy barrages of rockets were launched at "Gush Dan" on three separate occasions on Monday. Nearby, "Tel Aviv" was also targeted twice, as reports indicate that the second incident encompassed a large barrage of rockets.
Moreover, the Palestinian Islamic Jihad's al-Quds Brigades launched heavy barrages of rockets on multiple areas in occupied Palestine
The close proximity of Sderot to the Gaza Strip has made it an easy target for the Resistance's readily available rocket artillery and short-range rocket-assisted shells, such as the Qassim rocket, which holds at least 400 kg of TNT.
Gaza's Envelope has been gradually evacuated since October 7, as settlers headed toward "Eilat" in the southernmost point of occupied Palestine on the Red Sea's coast.
The occupied city currently holds more than 60,000 settlers as authorities manage yet another disaster.
