Israeli hospital suffers ‘extensive damage’ from Iranian missile strike, says Israel
- Early Thursday morning, an Iranian missile hit the Soroka Medical Center in Beersheba, Israel, resulting in significant damage and causing minor injuries to several individuals.
- The strike occurred amid a broader conflict after Iran fired about 400 missiles and drones at Israel in retaliation for Israeli airstrikes on Iranian nuclear and military sites.
- Soroka Medical Centre serves approximately one million residents, has over 1,000 beds, and was partly evacuated with non-urgent cases suspended after the strike on an old surgery building.
- Benjamin Netanyahu strongly criticized Iran's missile strike on Soroka hospital and promised a decisive retaliation against Tehran, while Iran claimed the attack targeted a nearby military intelligence facility.
- The ongoing conflict has raised fears of wider regional destabilization as nuclear talks are planned Friday in Geneva to urge Iran back to negotiations, while the U.S. considers its military role amid rising tensions.
