Iran Executes Intensive Missile Strike on Target in Israel, Strategic Facility Impacted
Sirens have been continuously blaring for over 40 minutes across extensive regions, including the north, south, and central areas.
On Monday, a series of ballistic missiles launched from Iran prompted widespread activation of air raid sirens across Israel, compelling residents to seek refuge in shelters. This event marked one of the most extensive alert operations witnessed in the region in recent years.
According to a report from Fars News Agency, referencing informed sources, the Iranian Armed Forces utilized the Kheibar-Shekan, Emad, Ghadr, and Fattah missiles in their recent strikes against Israel. Israeli media outlets have estimated that a total of 550 missiles have been launched at Israel to date.
In a span of merely 40 minutes, Israel’s Home Front Command identified three consecutive missile attacks launched from Iran. The initial barrage targeted the northern region of occupied Palestine, followed by a second round aimed at Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, and Ashkelon. The final assault focused on Israeli settlements in the vicinity of Gaza.
An Israeli Army Radio correspondent described the attack as “multiple waves of Iranian missiles impacting extensive regions of Israeli territory.”
In the northern regions, especially in towns adjacent to the occupied Palestinian-Lebanese border, initial alarms were triggered. Israeli authorities have advised residents to immediately seek shelter and remain indoors until further notice, according to reports from Israeli media.
Shortly thereafter, Israel confirmed a second missile salvo and cautioned that further sirens would soon sound in central regions. As anticipated, alerts were activated across Jerusalem and various southern areas.
In addition, reports from Israeli media indicated that a plane bound for Ben Gurion Airport was rerouted amid unfolding events.
According to Israeli media, Iranian missiles targeted a minimum of seven distinct sites across the occupied Palestinian territories. The assaults were said to include the foothills region dividing the coastal plains from the al-Khalil mountains, as well as locations in the north and south. One reported strike allegedly impacted a strategic facility in the southern area, though comprehensive information remains forthcoming.
Palestinian sources have verified that a missile strike led to significant damage at a power station in Isdud, marking one of the most critical disruptions to infrastructure in the area.
Channel 12 has highlighted the discontent among settlers concerning perceived glitches in the Home Front Command’s alert system, indicating that “the warnings don’t always arrive before the launches.” The network has recommended that residents “stay updated through media outlets.”
Footage circulating online shows Israeli occupation soldiers seeking shelter beneath a bridge as air raid sirens blared following the launch of Iranian missiles.
According to initial evaluations by the IOF, approximately 15 ballistic missiles were launched from Iran in successive waves over a span of about 40 minutes, signifying one of the longest missile assaults in the ongoing conflict.
While there have been no official reports of injuries at this time, authorities have confirmed multiple impact sites.
The Israeli Electric Corporation has announced power disruptions across multiple southern towns following a ballistic missile strike in proximity to a “strategic infrastructure facility.” In an official statement, the company assured that teams are currently en route to various affected areas with the goal of restoring power at the earliest opportunity. The efforts include repairing infrastructure and eliminating safety hazards and are being executed in collaboration with security forces.
Later, the Israeli Energy Minister announced that approximately 8,000 homes were experiencing power outages.
In occupied al-Quds, emergency protocols were swiftly enacted as Knesset lawmakers halted committee meetings and sought shelter. Sirens resonated throughout the area and its vicinity following reports of multiple strikes.
Medical teams have swiftly responded to reports of a ballistic missile impact near Isdud, as additional sirens echo in the North amidst a resurgence of missile launches.
The Israeli Defense Forces announced that air defense systems were mobilized to intercept the incoming missiles.
The attack’s nature, characterized by successive barrages, indicates a coordinated, multi-phase offensive by Iran.
