Netanyahu vows Iran will pay for the missile attack on a hospital

Jerusalem, June 19 (EFE).- Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu assured that “the tyrants of Tehran” will pay for what they have done after the impact this Thursday of an Iranian missile on a hospital in southern Israel. “This morning, the terrorist tyrants of Iran launched missiles against Soroka Hospital in Beersheba and against the civilian population in central Israel.

Los impactos dejaron tres heridos graves y dos en estado moderado, según los servicios de emergencia del país.

Los heridos graves son un hombre de unos 80 años y dos mujeres de 70, según el servicio de emergencias israelí Magen David Adom (MDA).
