💥 Cluster munition impacts in central Israel: One of the ballistic missiles launched by Iran toward central Israel carried a cluster bomb warhead, according to footage from the scene. Medics and rescue forces responded to reports of suspected cluster munition impacts at several locations in the center of the country.
💥 Casualties updated as rescue teams assessed the scene: Initial reports said there were no known injuries, but casualty numbers later rose as responders reached the impact sites. Magen David Adom later updated the toll in Bnei Brak to nine wounded, including a 23-year-old man in moderate condition and eight others in light condition, among them six children.
Among those reported wounded were a woman aged 80 and a 7-year-old who were hit by shrapnel and glass shards. Several more bomblets struck Petah Tikva, where no injuries were reported.
💥 Damage to residential areas: Several residential buildings in central Israel were damaged by the cluster munitions. A photo from the scene shows a safe room that was directly struck, with the reinforced walls absorbing the impact and the civilians inside left unharmed.
⚠️ Rescue forces operating at multiple sites: IDF search and rescue forces are operating at several locations in central Israel where impacts were reported. The public has been asked to avoid gathering in these areas and to continue following Home Front Command instructions.
