Around 50 Injured in Iranian Strike on Soroka Hospital - Jordan News
A reported Iranian missile strike on Soroka Hospital in Be'er Sheva left at least 50 people injured on Thursday, according to medical sources. A spokesperson for Magen David Adom stated that emergency teams "are providing medical treatment and have evacuated two individuals in critical condition to the hospital, in addition to 30 others with minor injuries." He added that additional emergency crews are attending to several other casualties at different locations. اضافة اعلان An Israeli military source reported that "dozens of ballistic missiles" were launched during the Iranian attack. Israel's Ministry of Foreign Affairs confirmed on Thursday that a hospital in the south of the country had been directly hit by a new wave of missile fire from Iran. The ministry posted on X: 'Soroka Hospital in Be'er Sheva in southern Israel was directly hit. Further details to follow.' A hospital spokesperson confirmed that the building sustained extensive damage in several areas. 'We are currently assessing the damage, including injuries. We urge citizens not to come to the hospital at this time,' he said. Iran launched the barrage of rockets on Thursday morning, marking the seventh day of escalating military conflict between the two sides. Israeli media reported that at least four missiles landed inside Israel following the Iranian strike. Soroka Hospital officials also suspect a hazardous material leak on one of the floors, prompting evacuation of the area. Separately, Tel Aviv police reported that a missile hit a tower, causing damage to nearby buildings in central Tel Aviv. Media outlets said rockets struck four locations: three in the Gush Dan area and one in the south. Reports also indicated a full building collapse at Soroka Hospital and another in Be'er Sheva. According to Israel's Channel 12, one missile struck a building in central Tel Aviv, causing widespread destruction. Yedioth Ahronoth confirmed that the attack on Israel was a dual assault using both missiles and drones. The ongoing exchange of missile fire and threats between Israel and Iran has raised fears of further military escalation. In response, Israel launched a wide-scale attack on Iran early Friday, targeting military and nuclear sites. The Israeli assault reportedly killed senior military leaders and nuclear scientists, claiming it was based on intelligence that Iran's nuclear program was approaching a 'point of no return.' Iran, which denies seeking to develop nuclear weapons, responded with dozens of missiles targeting military facilities inside Israel. Israeli media reported that patients were being evacuated from Soroka Hospital following the damage sustained in the Iranian missile strike.

Iran hits Israel: massive missile and drone barrage causing casualties
Shafaq News/ Iran launched a large-scale aerial attack on Israel early Thursday, firing missiles and deploying drones in what Israeli military media described as the most intense assault in recent days. Israeli Army Radio reported that between 20 and 30 projectiles were launched within hours, targeting Tel Aviv, Ramat Gan, Holon, and Beersheba. The strikes hit residential areas and public facilities, resulting in fatalities, injuries, and damage to critical infrastructure. Yedioth Ahronoth described the operation as a 'dual attack' combining unmanned aerial vehicles and precision-guided missiles. Israel Hayom reported that at least three people were killed. In Holon, one person was critically wounded and another moderately injured. Around 15 injuries were confirmed in Ramat Gan, mostly caused by missile impact and debris. According to Israeli emergency services, the total number of injuries across all affected areas has risen to 65. One missile struck Soroka Medical Center in Beersheba, the main hospital serving nearly one million residents of southern Israel. Hospital officials reported significant damage to several departments and said the facility was fully evacuated due to a hazardous material leak caused by the strike. Authorities have not disclosed the nature of the leaked substance, but emergency teams and environmental units were dispatched to the site. Several residential buildings in the targeted cities sustained structural damage. In Tel Aviv, police advised residents to remain indoors and follow civil defense instructions as emergency crews carried out evacuations and damage assessments.

Iran strikes Soroka Medical Center, one of Israel's largest hospitals treating soldiers
Israeli President Isaac Herzog, commenting on Thursday's targeting of Soroka Hospital by Iran, declared the incident to be a 'war crime and a crime against humanity,' vowing it would not deter Israel's actions, according to international media reports. Hebrew daily Yedioth Ahronoth quoted Herzog's remarks, where he lauded Soroka Hospital, hit by Iranian shelling, as 'among Israel's finest medical facilities.' He highlighted the 'dedicated staff, united in their efforts to preserve lives,' adding, 'We profoundly remember the magnitude of this moment and the principles of humanity and civilization under assault by a jihadist regime intent on our destruction.' Notably, soldiers participating in the ongoing aggression against the Gaza Strip—an operation that has resulted in the deaths of tens of thousands of Palestinians, predominantly women and children—are receiving medical care at Soroka Hospital. Iran's Fars News Agency, an outlet closely associated with the Revolutionary Guard, claimed the attacks were directed at the Israeli military's Central Command for Communications, Control, and Intelligence. The agency specified that these targets are located next to the military hospital, explaining why Soroka was exposed to the blast wave. This marks the seventh consecutive day that areas within Israel have been subjected to Iranian attacks. These recent barrages, involving dozens of Iranian missiles, are described as the most intense within a 48-hour period, according to Israel's Channel 12 and the occupation army's radio.
