Iran missile attack on Israel: 9 people killed
The rocket attacks carried out by Iran on Israeli territory have further complicated the situation. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
The Times of Israel, citing information from the "Magen David Adom" emergency service, reported that the number of victims has reached nine, with more than 20 people injured. This number increased throughout the day: earlier, Reuters had reported six deaths in Beit Shemesh, and later The Times of Israel announced that the death toll had risen to nine.
According to reports, the ballistic missile launched by Iran struck the city of Beit Shemesh near Jerusalem. As a result of this strike, significant destruction occurred in residential areas, fires broke out, and rescuers began searching for those trapped under the rubble.
Local sources indicate that the rocket caused serious damage to the residential complex. According to Yediot Ahronot and The Times of Israel, the bomb shelter near the synagogue was also damaged by the strike.
This attack was not limited to a single building but also damaged the surrounding infrastructure. Additionally, it has been noted that among the injured, at least three people are in serious condition.
The Pentagon also reported losses among American military personnel during military operations against Iran. According to a statement from the US Central Command, three American soldiers were killed, and five others were seriously injured.
Several soldiers sustained minor injuries and experienced concussions. This situation in the Middle East has also affected the United Arab Emirates.
According to Reuters and other sources, there are initial casualties in the UAE as well: at least three people have died, and dozens have been injured. Information about nearly 60 wounded individuals is available, although official figures may vary in some cases.
Therefore, these figures are likely to be updated. Overall, the strike in Beit Shemesh is not just a local tragedy but has become another serious event in the expanding military conflict across the region.
The number of casualties in Israel is increasing, losses among US military personnel have been confirmed, and the threat remains in the Gulf states.
