Certainly true. I found the context with the Toys R'Us car quite funny, that's why I shared.
On mortars, I found this: https://www.timesofisrael.com/after-failures-in-2014-war-iro...

It can, but it wont
The range of trajectories you can intercept and detect is dependent on the location of deployment.
In order to catch mortars (very high angle of fire with very short range) you need be very close "to the enemy" when you are that close its much harder to detect rockets since they quickly pass by the radar in that range
There is really not much text and/or information, and also a couple of odd typos
one correction, ID can intercept rockets and mortars shells come out of an artillery unit and would be quite difficult to hit. also, due to the trajectory, low range and low lethality of mortars 99/100 times ID will never be deployed in locations to intercept mortars
