Iran launched missile strikes on two southern Israeli towns, Arad and Dimona, on Saturday evening, resulting in over 180 injuries, with some victims sustaining serious wounds. The attacks targeted areas near a nuclear research facility located approximately 13 kilometers outside Dimona. Israeli emergency officials confirmed the impact of ballistic missiles on both towns, though no immediate reports of casualties were released.
The International Atomic Energy Agency stated it has no information indicating damage to the nuclear facility. Iranian state media reported the strikes as a response to regional tensions, though details about the operation remain limited. The incident marks a significant escalation in recent hostilities between Iran and Israel.
