Three Israelis Near Tel Aviv Injured by Shrapnel from Iranian Missiles

Petah tikva: Three Israelis were injured on Wednesday when Iranian missile shrapnel struck a building in Petah Tikva, a central city in Israel. The incident followed a barrage launched from Iran, as reported by media and emergency responders.

According to Anadolu Agency, Israel's Channel 12 reported that Iran fired a missile barrage toward Israel, noting that some of the projectiles included cluster munitions. The channel aired footage showing damage to buildings and burning vehicles in various areas of central Israel, including the city of Ramat Gan, which is located east of Tel Aviv. These damages were attributed to falling missile fragments.

The Hebrew news website Walla reported that Iranian missile shrapnel fell in at least nine locations across central Israel. Israel's emergency service, Magen David Adom, provided treatment to three injured individuals in Petah Tikva and described their injuries as minor.

There were no independent reports immediately available detailing the scale of damage or casualties. This is due to Israeli restrictions on reporting losses resulting from the ongoing conflict with Iran. The Israeli military has repeatedly warned against publishing images or videos of strike locations.

This missile barrage marks the eighth launched from Iran toward Israel since around midnight Tuesday.
