Six Injured in Iranian Missile Attack

Israeli air defence systems intercepted a new wave of Iranian missiles on Thursday, following a period of relative calm.

Magen David Adom (MDA) emergency services confirmed that six people sustained light injuries from blast effects and were treated by paramedics.

The strikes also caused property damage in the central city of Kafr Qassem, where Mayor Haitham Taha reported that the destruction appeared to be the result of cluster munitions impacting residential areas.

The Israeli military issued multiple alerts over 90 minutes as sirens sounded throughout central Israel, Jerusalem, and parts of the West Bank.

Residents were briefly ordered to seek shelter in protected spaces as defensive systems engaged the incoming threats.

Explosions were reported in Tel Aviv, and while the Home Front Command was dispatched to several impact sites, the military later cleared citizens to return to their daily routines as the immediate threat subsided.

This latest escalation follows an overnight barrage from Lebanon, where the Iran-backed group Hezbollah claimed responsibility for targeting several Israeli military installations.

While Israeli media reported that six rockets from the Lebanese front were successfully intercepted, the persistent cross-border fire underscores the widening regional conflict.

Thursday’s missile salvos mark the first major Iranian attack in over 14 hours, occurring amid a tense atmosphere of ongoing military exchanges across multiple fronts.
