A missile launched from Iran struck central Israel, injuring two civilians and damaging residential property, according to Israel’s national emergency service. The incident occurred in the densely populated cities of Bnei Brak and nearby Ramat Gan, areas located just east of Tel Aviv.

Emergency responders from Magen David Adom reported that a man in his 60s was moderately injured when a missile hit an apartment building in Bnei Brak. The blast caused structural damage and scattered debris throughout the surrounding area, forcing emergency teams to quickly secure the site and provide medical assistance to those affected. Paramedics treated the victim at the scene before transferring him to a nearby hospital for further care.

A second victim, a man in his 70s, sustained lighter injuries following another missile impact in Ramat Gan. According to first responders, the injuries were caused by the shockwave and blast effects from the strike rather than a direct hit. Medical teams treated the victim for minor wounds and monitored his condition.

Footage and photos from the scene showed visible damage to residential structures, with shattered windows and debris scattered across nearby streets. Emergency crews, police, and security personnel responded rapidly to assess the damage, ensure no additional victims were trapped, and secure the affected areas.

The attack is part of a broader series of missile barrages launched by Iran toward Israeli territory amid the escalating regional conflict. Sirens warning of incoming missiles were activated across multiple cities in central Israel shortly before the impacts occurred, prompting residents to seek shelter as part of the country’s nationwide emergency alert system.

Despite Israel’s multilayered missile defense systems, which intercept the vast majority of incoming projectiles, some missiles or debris can still reach urban areas, causing damage and injuries. Emergency authorities have repeatedly urged civilians to immediately enter protected shelters whenever warning sirens sound.

Israeli security officials continue to monitor the situation closely as tensions with Iran remain high. Rescue teams are assessing the full extent of the damage in both Bnei Brak and Ramat Gan, while military and intelligence officials evaluate the origin and trajectory of the missile involved in the attack.

The latest strike highlights the ongoing threat posed by Iran’s missile arsenal and the risks faced by Israeli civilians during periods of heightened conflict. As emergency crews continue cleanup and safety inspections, authorities remain on alert for the possibility of additional barrages in the coming days.
