Attack on Israel: Consequences
In particular, numerous falls of fragments and rockets were reported in Tel Aviv. Social media users publish photos and videos from the crash sites of Iranian missiles.
The IDF intercepted most of the 180 ballistic missiles fired. As a result of the Iranian missile attack on Israel, rocket fragments killed one Palestinian, and two more people were slightly injured.
The consequences of the shelling of Israel are revealed online. One of the videos shows a large crater, which probably formed as a result of the fall of the rocket.
A large fragment of a rocket found in the city of Tel Sheva was also recorded.
