Hours after the United States attacked important Iranian nuclear sites, Iran launched a string of missile attacks against Israel.
Shortly after the Israeli military reported incoming Iranian missiles and activated air defenses, loud explosions were audible in coastal Tel Aviv and Jerusalem on Sunday.
Rescue organizations and media reports claimed at least 20 people had been hurt when sirens rang in Israeli cities.
Local authorities said emergency services were heading to an “accident site” in an area close to the northern port of Haifa, according to Israeli police reports “the fall of weapon fragments.”
Israel’s three cities, Beersheba, Haifa, and Tel Aviv, have been frequently targeted by Iran.
According to official figures, 25 people have died and at least 50 impacts have been officially acknowledged nationwide since the war started on June 13 in Israel, despite strict military censorship laws that apply to reporting on missile strikes.
After President Donald Trump claimed that the US attacks “obliterated” Iran’s nuclear facilities at Isfahan, Fordow, and Natanz, Iran has warned of “everlasting consequences.”
