Israel’s military headquarters were struck after Iran’s Islamic Republic unleashed a barrage of missiles on central Tel Aviv late Friday night, causing “significant damage” to the Jewish state’s equivalent of the Pentagon.
At least three people were killed and scores were wounded during an aerial battle over Tel Aviv, as Iranian missiles rained down and Israeli rockets attempted to intercept them.
At least seven people were killed and more than 100 injured when an Iranian ballistic missile hit Bat Yam, just south of Tel Aviv, overnight on Sunday, domestic media reported. Other reports put the death toll at six people. Israel's police said residential buildings took a "direct hit that caused extensive damage."
Eliezer Reinhold lives in a suburb of Tel Aviv, Petah Tikva. Reinhold is the father-in-law of Florida State University’s Chabad of Tallahassee Rabbi, Schneur Oirechman. Reinhold visits Tallahassee several times a year, but is currently in Israel. He said the last few days have been long, and every night brings the chance for missile attacks.
