Iranian densely packed missiles attack Israel, leaving 3 dead

The Israeli army announced this Saturday morning the launch of a new wave of Iranian rockets toward Israel. The Home Front Command stated that the sixth batch of rockets, launched from Iran, targeted broad areas across Israeli territory. In addition, Israeli media reported a "very serious incident" in Tel Avivdetails have not been disclosedafter an Iranian missile strike targeted a strategic site.
According to the latest reports, the Iranian attacks have resulted in three Israeli deaths. Two of them were killed by rockets targeting the city of Rishon LeZion in the south of Tel Aviv, while another Israeli soldier was killed in a rocket strike in Ramat Gan early this Saturday. The number of those injured due to the Iranian shelling has risen to approximately 90, amid reports of unprecedented destruction in the greater Tel Aviv area.
The newspaper Yedioth Aharonoth reported that Iran launched three missile waves onto Israel within just 15 minutes early this morning. The first wave targeted areas in Mivtzar and Tiberias in the north of the country, earlier in the morning.
In a rapid development, the Israeli army said it detected Iranian drones infiltrating into Israeli territory and called on residents to follow the Home Front instructions. Later, it was announced that the army intercepted several drones over the Dead Sea and Mount Hebron.
Further details indicate that ambulance services reported two deaths and 21 injuries from rockets falling on Rishon LeZion, including three in critical condition. Israeli media also reported power outages in central Israeli neighborhoods due to the fall of rockets, with reports of people stranded inside their homes.
Yedioth Aharonoth noted that many Israelis were injured, and significant damage was inflicted on six buildings during the recent Iranian attack. Accordingly, the Israeli military urged residents to continue adhering to Home Front directives, warning that dozens of rockets had been launched from Iran in the past hour, with some likely intercepted.
Israeli media reported that witnesses heard loud explosions in multiple locations, and an Israeli radio station broadcast sounds of explosions in broad areas of the north, center, and south of the country—one of which was for the first time.
In Iran, official media announced the launch of a "new batch of Iranian missile attacks" against Israel, originating from the cities of Tehran and Kermanshah in western Iran. The Iranian Revolutionary Guard revealed it used "advanced smart systems and high-precision missiles" in "Operation Trustworthy Promise 3," in retaliation for the widespread Israeli attacks early yesterday Friday.
Reuters quoted a senior Iranian official as saying there would be no safe place in Israel, and that Tehran's response would be painful. Emergency and relief teams are active at several sites across Israel, with reports of missile falls, while stressing the importance of not sharing or revealing attack locations.
In a related context, Israeli media sources cited eyewitnesses who said an Iranian missile fell at a strategic site in central Israel, indicating a serious and ongoing escalation of this mutual military conflict.
