16 injured as Iran fires missile barrages at Israel hours after US strikes

Among the hardest-hit locations was a retirement home in northern Tel Aviv, where the roof collapsed following a missile impact. Police bomb disposal units and rescue teams were on site, ensuring no explosives remain and that no one was trapped in the rubble.

Six people have been evacuated from the scene with minor injuries, according to Israel Police, along with elderly residents who were unharmed but required assistance due to the structural damage.

Extensive damage was also reported in Ness Ziona, Be'er Ya'akov and Haifa.

The IDF reported that during this morning’s missile launches from Iran toward Israel, no sirens sounded in Haifa. An initial investigation indicates that a projectile did hit in the city, and authorities are examining the possibility of an issue with the interceptor system.

The IDF clarified that there was no malfunction in the alert system, noting that a prior warning had been issued for the area. The incident remains under review.

The Israeli Air Force and Israeli Navy during overnight operations on Saturday intercepted some 30 Iranian suicide drones heading for the Jewish state, according to the IDF, which noted that more than 500 UAVs have been intercepted since the start of the war on June 13.

The Iranian missile barrage came hours after U.S. airstrikes that, according to President Donald Trump, “totally obliterated” Iran’s primary nuclear enrichment sites at Fordow, Natanz and Isfahan. Trump declared the operation “extremely successful,” emphasizing that the Fordow facility had been “eliminated” and calling for Iran to “agree to end this war."

Israel’s military confirmed that many of the Iranian missiles were intercepted, but said that falling debris and fragments had caused significant property damage and injuries in several locations.

The Israel Defense Forces announced shortly after the barrages that the Air Force had initiated a series of strikes targeting military sites in western Iran.

According to the IDF Spokesperson's Unit, the IAF also attacked missile launchers that were being prepared for additional attacks on Israeli territory, as well as Iranian armed forces personnel operating nearby. The military reported that the launchers responsible for Sunday morning's attacks had been neutralised.
