Iran retaliated on Saturday, June 14 by firing a barrage of ballistic missiles at Israel, following deadly Israeli strikes that claimed dozens of lives in Iran.
Explosions lit up the skies over Jerusalem and Tel Aviv, shaking buildings and sending civilians fleeing for cover.
Early Saturday, a second round of Iranian missile attacks triggered air raid sirens in Jerusalem as loud booms, likely from Israeli interceptors, reverberated across the capital. In Tel Aviv, at least two Iranian missiles struck the ground, according to Associated Press reporters on the scene.
Israel’s Fire and Rescue Services confirmed that a building in Tel Aviv was hit, injuring seven people. One woman was reported to be in critical condition after being trapped under rubble. A hospital in Tel Aviv treated the wounded, six of whom had minor injuries. Israeli media said that three people were killed in the strikes.
Israel’s paramedic services said 34 people were wounded in the rocket attacks on the Tel Aviv area, including a woman who was critically injured after being trapped under rubble.
