A second person has been confirmed dead after Iran fired suspected cluster munitions at central Israel on Sunday.

More than a dozen impact sites were recorded across the area, suggesting the use of such a missile, police said.

Authorities confirmed that five people were wounded in Petah Tikva, while a man in his forties was seriously injured in Tel Aviv, around six miles away.

A second strike then saw six more impacts in Yehud, Holon and Bat Yam.
