Iranian Missile Barrage Hits Haifa: Buildings Destroyed, Dozens Injured

A wave of Iranian missile strikes struck northern Israel early Sunday, causing significant damage and casualties, according to reports from both Israeli military sources and domestic media.

The Israeli military confirmed that three buildings were destroyed in the city of Haifa following the Iranian attack. The strikes, described as intense and coordinated, left at least 23 people injured, according to Israeli media citing official sources.

Adding to the controversy, the Israeli military has launched an internal investigation into why air raid sirens failed to activate in Haifa during the time of the attack. The failure of the early warning system may have contributed to the number of injuries sustained.

Meanwhile, Israeli media outlets reported that Iran launched a heavy barrage of approximately 40 missiles targeting various sites across Israel, marking one of the largest single-day missile offensives in the ongoing escalation between the two countries.

The situation remains fluid as Israeli defense officials assess the full extent of the damage and prepare potential responses. International observers have urged both sides to avoid further escalation.
