Iranian Missile Attack Causes Explosions in Tel Aviv

On Friday, an Iranian missile barrage struck Tel Aviv, resulting in explosions and fires in the city, particularly near Israel's commercial hub. The Israeli military successfully intercepted some incoming missiles late Thursday, with AFP journalists in Tel Aviv reporting simultaneous explosions.

The barrage prompted Israel's emergency services, Magen David Adom (MDA), to respond to several impact sites, although no casualties were reported. Israeli police are managing the scene, which involved debris from intercepted missiles hitting buildings on the outskirts of Tel Aviv, leading to evacuations in the area.

The incident follows a warning from Israel's home front command regarding severe rocket fire near the Lebanon border, heightening tensions as Israel expands its military campaign against Hezbollah and vows retribution against Tehran for its support of the militant group, particularly after the killing of a significant figure on Saturday.
