The attacks by Iran on Israel, in response to the coordinated bombings between Israel and the United States on Saturday morning, have left one fatality and 121 injuries according to the Israeli emergency service Magen David Adom (MDA) and have affected at least Tel Aviv and Jerusalem.

“Emergency teams were deployed to dozens of scenes throughout Israel following several missile attacks”, it was reported on its Telegram channel, where they also reported the death of a woman around 50 years old and the injuries of 121 people, of whom two are in moderate condition and 119 with minor injuries.

Previously, it had been reported that this woman’s death occurred in an attack in Tel Aviv, the first to be reported by the Israeli authorities. Images of the impact site distributed by the emergency services show a four-story residential building destroyed by the missile, along with others of the same height with damage.

This building is located near the headquarters of the Ministry of Defense in the city, a target that the Iranian Revolutionary Guard said it had attacked.

The MDA service also reported having registered several incidents in northern Israel and in the Jerusalem area, without any victims having been identified. According to the data provided by the MDA, the injured in Tel Aviv reached 28, which implies that the remaining 93 occurred in other parts of the country. EFE has not been able to independently verify the extent of the possible impacts and the Israeli military censorship demands that the media avoid publishing the specific locations where the missiles hit. The Iranian Revolutionary Guard claimed to have launched several waves of attacks “continuously” against various military targets in Israel and the United States. Among these Israeli targets, it mentions the naval base in the port of Haifa and an anchorage for warships in Haifa, as well as the Ramat David air base, the Beit Shams military complex, an industrial center in Ishtod, and a headquarters of the Israeli Ministry of Defense in the Hakeryat area, in Tel Aviv. For their part, the Israeli authorities have reported a new wave of missiles against the Islamic republic, specifically its missile systems and air defense systems. Israel and the United States launched a coordinated attack against Iran on Saturday morning that has caused at least 200 fatalities and the death of Iranian supreme leader Ali Khamenei, according to US President Donald Trump, information not confirmed by the authorities of the Persian country. Iran responded with attacks against Israel and against US military bases in the region and allied countries of the Western power, such as Qatar or the United Arab Emirates.
