Iranian Missile Falls Near Microsoft Office in Israel
Taarek Refaat Israeli media reported that an Iranian missile fell in the city of Be'er Sheva, injuring 18 people, according to initial reports. The footage showed a Microsoft building, reflecting Tehran's repeated statements about targeting scientific and intelligence centers and headquarters affiliated with or working for the Israeli military. Videos circulated on social media showing fires in the areas where the rockets landed, including Beersheba, Nevatim, and Rahat, in addition to the burning of several cars parked in the area. An Israeli military spokesperson stated: "The IDF identified missile launches from Iran toward Israel a short while ago, and defense systems are working to intercept the threat. Citizens should head to protected areas and remain there until further notice." After assessing the situation, the Israeli Home Front Command announced that it was permissible to leave protected areas, noting that search and rescue units were operating at the site of the missile strike, stressing the need for the public to continue following security instructions. In this context, the Israeli military announced, in the early hours of Friday morning, that it had intercepted three Iranian drones en route to Israeli territory, amid escalating military tensions between the two sides. In contrast, former commander of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps Mohsen Rezaei confirmed that Iran has so far launched more than 400 missiles and 600 drones toward Israel as part of ongoing military operations. Rezaei added, in statements reported by Iranian media, that his country has used less than 30% of its actual military capabilities, while the potential use rate is only about 5%. Rezaei revealed the existence of new missile capabilities that will be announced soon, noting that naval and land capabilities have not yet been used in the confrontation. He explained that what has been achieved so far reflects a limited portion of Iran's military power, which could pave the way for further escalation if the clashes continue. read more CBE: Deposits in Local Currency Hit EGP 5.25 Trillion Morocco Plans to Spend $1 Billion to Mitigate Drought Effect Gov't Approves Final Version of State Ownership Policy Document Egypt's Economy Expected to Grow 5% by the end of 2022/23- Minister Qatar Agrees to Supply Germany with LNG for 15 Years Business Oil Prices Descend amid Anticipation of Additional US Strategic Petroleum Reserves Business Suez Canal Records $704 Million, Historically Highest Monthly Revenue Business Egypt's Stock Exchange Earns EGP 4.9 Billion on Tuesday Business Wheat delivery season commences on April 15 News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War Arts & Culture Zahi Hawass: Claims of Columns Beneath the Pyramid of Khafre Are Lies News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks Videos & Features Video: Trending Lifestyle TikToker Valeria Márquez Shot Dead during Live Stream News Shell Unveils Cost-Cutting, LNG Growth Plan Technology 50-Year Soviet Spacecraft 'Kosmos 482' Crashes into Indian Ocean News 3 Killed in Shooting Attack in Thailand

65 Israelis Injured in Largest Iranian Missile Barrage in 48 Hours - Jordan News
65 Israelis Injured in Largest Iranian Missile Barrage in 48 Hours The Israeli Home Front Command reported on Thursday that several missiles were launched from Iran, triggering sirens in multiple towns. The Israeli army instructed residents of two villages near nuclear facilities to evacuate their homes, warning of imminent strikes. اضافة اعلان Sirens also sounded again in Tel Aviv and several towns in the Galilee region in northern Israel amid warnings of drone infiltrations. Citizens were urged to seek shelter in bomb shelters. Israeli Army Radio stated that Iran had launched the largest missile barrage in 48 hours, comprising roughly 20 to 30 missiles. Israeli media reported that Iranian missiles struck direct targets in Tel Aviv, Ramat Gan, Holon, and Beersheba. According to Iran's Fars News Agency, Tehran also launched drones toward Israel. Channel 12 in Israel reported initial alerts of direct hits in Greater Tel Aviv and loud explosions. Army Radio added that there was a critical injury and a moderate injury in Holon, while Ramat Gan reported about 15 injuries. The total number of injured due to the Iranian attack has reportedly risen to 65. Israeli emergency services received calls from multiple impact sites, and the spokesperson for Israel's Fire Authority told state radio that there were direct hits in central Tel Aviv and Beersheba. Concerns were raised about people possibly trapped under rubble and the risk of building collapses. Al Jazeera's correspondent cited Israeli media as reporting massive destruction at five sites in Greater Tel Aviv, with fires still burning. Reports also indicated that an Iranian missile directly struck Soroka Medical Center in Beersheba, causing injuries. The missile reportedly targeted an Israeli military intelligence headquarters located next to the hospital. Iran's state news agency claimed the military infrastructure was hit precisely, while the hospital sustained damage from the blast wave. The targeted facility was said to host thousands of soldiers, digital command systems, and cyber warfare operations. However, Israel's Deputy Foreign Minister denied that a military base was struck, asserting instead that a ballistic missile hit Soroka Hospital, not a military site. An Iranian missile also reportedly hit the entrance of Ariel settlement, one of the largest settlements in the West Bank, and drone attacks were reported in the Jordan Valley area. In response, the Israeli army ordered immediate evacuation of residents, workers, and anyone present in the Iranian villages of Arak and Khondab near nuclear sites, ahead of planned strikes on military facilities. Meanwhile, Iranian media reported explosions and the activation of air defense systems in Karaj, west of Tehran. Iranian state television announced that Israel attacked the vicinity of the Khondab heavy water facility in central Iran earlier today. — (Al Jazeera)

'Leave If You Feel Unsafe': India Urges Citizens To Consider Voluntary Exit From Israel, Issues Helpline
The Indian Embassy in Tel Aviv has not ordered a mandatory evacuation, but has 'strongly urged' Indian nationals to voluntarily depart if they feel insecure. Amid growing fears of a potential military escalation between Israel and Iran, India has advised its citizens in Israel to consider leaving the country if they feel unsafe, top government sources have told CNN-News18. This advisory comes in the wake of a similar security warning issued by the United States to its nationals, raising concerns over the regional conflict intensifying. According to sources familiar with the matter, the Indian Embassy in Tel Aviv has not ordered a mandatory evacuation, but has 'strongly urged" Indian nationals to voluntarily depart if they feel insecure. Approximately 40,000 Indians currently reside in Israel, and the embassy has prepared a comprehensive database to assist and coordinate any evacuation efforts. To ensure efficient communication, all Indian nationals have been requested to register with the embassy via its official portal ( This will allow them to receive real-time alerts and emergency support. The embassy has also activated 24/7 emergency helplines for assistance: +972-3-5226748 (emergency) and +972-3-7620700 (general enquiries). Unlike the government-led evacuation from Iran – where Indian citizens were flown out via Armenia — the current plan for Israel is voluntary, land-based, and coordinated with the support of the embassy. Indian citizens are being advised to exit the country using two key land routes: Via Jordan: Indians can exit through the Allenby Bridge or King Hussein Bridge crossings. However, this requires obtaining an eVisa through Jordan's Interior Ministry portal. For those who choose to remain in Israel, the embassy has shared a set of safety guidelines. These include avoiding non-essential travel, staying close to bomb shelters, and closely monitoring alerts issued by the Israeli Home Front Command through its website ( Prime Minister Narendra Modi has reportedly conveyed India's deep concern over the tensions and reaffirmed India's support for peace and stability in the region during discussions with Israeli leadership. In view of the situation, Indian nationals in Israel are being urged to remain alert, stay informed through embassy updates, and proactively plan their exit routes if concerned about their safety.
