Iran unleashes new missile barrage at Israel as attacks escalate
IRGC says combined missile-drone attacks targeted military targets, industrial centers in Haifa, Tel Aviv

ISTANBUL
Iran launched a fresh wave of ballistic missiles at Israel on Thursday evening, as attacks raged on between the two regional enemies.
In a statement, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said combined missile-drone attacks targeted military targets and industrial centers related to the Israeli military industry in the cities of Haifa and Tel Aviv.
“Drone operations continue today with more than 100 types of combat and suicide drones against military targets, especially missile defense systems in Haifa and Tel Aviv,” it added.
Israeli media said that more than 10 missiles were detected heading toward Haifa, with air-raid sirens blaring in the Carmel region in northwestern Israel and the southern occupied Syrian Golan Heights.
Explosions were heard in northern Israel as air defenses attempted to intercept the Iranian missiles, media reports said.
No information was yet available about injuries or damage.
Hostilities began on Friday when Israel launched airstrikes on several sites across Iran, including military and nuclear facilities, prompting Tehran to launch retaliatory strikes.
Israeli authorities said at least 24 people have been killed and hundreds injured since then in Iranian missile attacks.
Meanwhile, in Iran, 639 people have been killed and more than 1,300 wounded in the Israeli assault, according to Iranian media reports.
