Tensions Escalate as Missiles Target Coastal Cities, Some Intercepted Over Jerusalem
In a dramatic escalation of hostilities, Iran launched a wave of missiles at Israel shortly after US officials issued a warning about the imminent threat of an attack. The missile barrage, which occurred just after 7:30 PM, saw dozens of rockets heading toward Israel’s coastal cities, with some missiles intercepted mid-flight over Jerusalem.
Witnesses in Jerusalem reported seeing the missiles streaking overhead, with the engines of the rockets clearly visible in the sky. Although some interceptions were audible, many missiles continued toward central Israel, their impact marked by distant explosions.
This unprecedented missile strike has heightened tensions in the region, as onlookers gathered in the Old City to observe the barrage. The attack follows escalating rhetoric and military movements, further deepening the crisis between Israel and Iran.
