Iranian Missiles Hit Israel's Stock Exchange Building
Taarek Refaat
An Iranian missile strike hit the Israeli Stock Exchange on Thursday, injuring at least 15 people, including two in critical condition, according to Israel's national emergency medical service. The attack marks a sharp escalation in the ongoing conflict between Iran and Israel.
Preliminary figures from Israeli health authorities later revised the number of wounded to at least 50, following what officials described as a "massive and coordinated missile barrage" across multiple Israeli cities.
Citing Iranian sources, The Economic Times reported that the strike also targeted an Israeli army command center, an intelligence facility, and a military coordination hub. The full extent of the damage is still being assessed.
In a related development, Soroka Medical Center in Be'er Sheva reportedly halted admissions after sustaining structural damage from an Iranian missile, according to Israeli media outlets.
The attack was met with immediate retaliation. The Israeli Air Force launched a pre-dawn offensive, deploying 40 fighter jets in a coordinated strike on several high-value targets across Iran, including the Arak heavy water reactor, a known component of Iran's nuclear infrastructure.
The Iranian and Israeli governments have yet to release full casualty figures or comprehensive damage assessments, but analysts warn that the reciprocal strikes are pushing the region toward a wider military confrontation with potentially global implications.
