Iran has fired a new round of missiles at Israel, with reports of strikes in several locations, as tensions between the two countries continue.
Iran has launched a new wave of missile strikes targeting Israel, according to reports from Iranian media. The Israeli military confirmed detecting missile launches from Iranian territory and stated that air defence systems are engaged in intercepting the incoming missiles.
Initial reports from Israeli media suggest that missile impacts have been recorded in multiple areas, including Tel Aviv, Haifa, and the Negev. Iranian sources indicated that one strike targeted the Rafael company in Haifa, one of Israel’s major defence contractors. However, full assessments of the extent of the damage are still pending.
The situation remains fluid amid heightened regional tensions. International observers are monitoring developments closely as the conflict continues. There has been no official comment on any potential response or further escalation.
