The death toll from strikes on Israel overnight into Sunday rise to seven, after Iran launched multiple waves of missile and drone attacks, reports CNN.
According to reports, atleast four people were killed by a falling missile late Saturday night on northern Israel, police said. The national emergency service Magen David Adom (MDA) had given an earlier death toll of three, saying a residential building in the Palestinian-Israeli town of Tamra had been hit.
A “weapon falling in a direct hit” killed two women in their 40s, one woman aged 20, and one 13-year-old girl, police said. They added that “a number of” residents were wounded, with emergency responders on the scene looking for anyone trapped under the rubble.
In a later wave of missile strikes, three people were killed in central Israel’s Bat Yam city, according to the MDA and Israeli police. One woman around 60 years old was killed when a building was struck, the MDA said, adding there had also been damage to “many buildings around it.”
More than 100 people were also reported injured across regions of central Israel following the strikes.
