The Israeli military said several waves of rockets were launched toward central Israel throughout the morning hours.

At least one strike hit the town of Kafr Qasim, located east of Tel Aviv.

Emergency service Magen David Adom reported that six people were wounded in the attack.

Medics arriving at the scene found a building with significant damage, with injuries largely caused by the blast wave.

The injured were treated at the scene before being transported to nearby hospitals.

Israeli officials said that the barrage was part of a broader escalation, with Iran launching at least seven waves of missiles toward Israel over the course of several hours.

Additional rocket fire targeting the Tel Aviv area was also reported overnight from both Iran and neighbouring Lebanon.

Air raid sirens sounded across wide parts of the country, including Jerusalem and northern regions, as emergency services responded to multiple reported impact sites.

The attacks mark a further intensification of hostilities in the region, raising concerns about a wider conflict and its potential aftereffects.

The post Iranian missile strikes hit Tel Aviv area, six injured appeared first on Frontpageng.

Israel’s Channel 12 reported on Thursday night that several fragments from the missiles fell across the city and surrounding areas.

The broadcaster also reported a large fire and major material damage caused by the Iranian missile attack.

Fires and significant damage were recorded in at least three locations in and around Tel Aviv, eyewitnesses told Anadolu.

Iran has launched missiles and drones toward Israel and Gulf countries that are home to U.S. military assets since February 28.

Some of the attacks have caused casualties and damage to civilian sites, including ports and residential buildings.

Tehran said the attacks came in response to a U.S.-Israeli military campaign against Iran that has killed hundreds of people, including Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and top military officials.
