STORYLINE:
Sirens and trails of what seemed to be an interception of a missile fired from Iran were seen over Jerusalem and Tel Aviv on Thursday.
Sound of explosions were heard over Tel Aviv and Jerusalem as reports emerged of an Iranian missile barrage, including a “direct hit” on a medical building.
Details remained sparse after the attack. However, firefighters said it appeared the medical building and some apartment buildings had been hit.
There was no immediate word on if anyone was hurt.
The strike came as Israel struck Iran’s Arak heavy water reactor.
Israel’s seventh day of airstrikes on Iran came a day after Iran’s supreme leader rejected U.S. calls for surrender and warned that any military involvement by the Americans would cause “irreparable damage to them.” Israel also lifted some restrictions on daily life, suggesting the missile threat from Iran on its territory was easing.
Already, Israel’s campaign has targeted Iran’s enrichment site at Natanz, centrifuge workshops around Tehran and a nuclear site in Isfahan. Its strikes have also killed top generals and nuclear scientists.
A Washington-based Iranian human rights group said at least 639 people, including 263 civilians, have been killed in Iran and more than 1,300 wounded. In retaliation, Iran has fired some 400 missiles and hundreds of drones, killing at least 24 people in Israel and wounding hundreds. Some have hit apartment buildings in central Israel, causing heavy damage.
