In the early hours of Monday, a new series of missile attacks between Iran and Israel marked a significant escalation in their ongoing conflict. Israel launched airstrikes targeting Iranian weapons and missile facilities, prompting Tehran to respond with a wave of ballistic missiles.
The strikes led to the deaths of three individuals and left many others injured in central Israel, with additional casualties reported in Haifa and a fire ignited at a power station. Emergency services reported that 74 people were hospitalized, including one woman in serious condition and several others suffering from moderate injuries or psychological trauma. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu issued a stark warning to Tehran, stating they would “pay a heavy price,” while Iran pledged a “devastating response,” declaring that soon “Israel will no longer be inhabitable.” The situation has sparked widespread panic in Iran, with many residents fleeing Tehran following reports of Israeli strikes and the deaths of at least 14 Iranian nuclear scientists. Tensions remain extremely high, with both sides indicating a willingness to escalate further.
