Iranian missile strikes on southern Israel have left around 200 people wounded, marking a major escalation in the ongoing conflict. The attacks targeted the towns of Arad and Dimona, located near a key nuclear research facility, raising global alarm. Several missiles penetrated Israel’s air defence systems, causing widespread damage to buildings, fires, and trapping civilians under rubble. Children were among the seriously injured, while emergency services declared a mass-casualty situation. Iran said the strikes were retaliation for alleged attacks on its nuclear sites, while Israel denied the claims and vowed strong countermeasures.
