Heavy explosions in Tehran. Houthi launch second missile towards Israel, intercepted

Ali Fouladvand, head of research at the Iranian Defence Research and Innovation Organisation, heir to Iran's pre-2004 nuclear programme, was killed along with members of his family in an air raid on Borujerd this morning, according to Iranian media reports. Iran International writes this. The man had a role in supervising sensitive military research. Fouladvand had survived an earlier attack during the twelve-day war last June, in which his wife, Masoumeh Pirhadi, was killed.

Yemen's Houthi rebels launched a second missile towards Israel, just hours after the first one that saw them enter the war with Iran, an Israeli security source told CNN on Saturday. According to the source, the Iranian-backed rebel movement launched a cruise missile. Both missiles were intercepted and no injuries or damage were reported.

A series of loud explosions rocked the Iranian capital this evening, according to an Afp journalist, as the war with Israel and the US continues. Explosions were heard in central Tehran for several minutes, although it is unclear what the target was.

The Pasdaran condemned the attack on the residence of Iraqi Kurdistan President Nechirvan Barzani. According to the Iranian Tasnim news agency, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps stated that the raid 'is an example of a terrorist attack perpetrated by the attacker's enemies'. For the Pasdaran "these terrorist attacks demonstrate the malicious attempts of the warmongering enemies to undermine peace, stability, and regional cooperation between the Kurdistan region and neighbouring countries''. The Islamic Revolutionary Guardians "condemned this terrorist aggression" and said they were ready "to support and defend the security of neighbouring countries by strengthening security cooperation and creating a collective defence shield in the region".

The Iranian missile attack on the Prince Sultan airbase in Saudi Arabia damaged an American E-3 Sentry, an airborne warning and control aircraft critical for battlefield management and tracking drones, missiles, and aircraft hundreds of kilometres away. The Wall Street Journal reports.

Qatari Prime Minister and Head of Diplomacy Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani had a telephone conversation with Pakistan's Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar. This was announced by al-Thani, explaining that the two talked about the repercussions of the military escalation in the region after the start of the Israeli-US operation against Iran. Pakistan said it was ready to mediate a solution to the conflict. The Qatari premier emphasised the need for Iran to stop unjustified attacks against his country and others in the region. In particular, he warned against attacks on energy infrastructure, as well as water and food infrastructure.

Qatar's Ministry of Defence announced that the country's air defence systems successfully repelled all Iranian drone attacks.

"Qatar's Ministry of Defence announces that the State of Qatar was targeted today, Saturday, by an attack of several drones launched from Iran. Our Armed Forces, by the grace of God, successfully intercepted and neutralised all incoming drones," the ministry said in a post on X.

The Israeli Air Force bombed the headquarters of the Iranian Maritime Industries Organisation, which is in charge of the production of weapons and military ships. The Times of Israel writes this, citing a statement by the IDF. According to the military, the attacked headquarters is responsible for 'research, development and production of a wide range of naval armaments, including surface and submarine ships, manned and unmanned equipment, as well as engines and weapons'.

Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani has condemned the attack on the house of the president of the country's semi-autonomous Kurdish region, Nechirvan Barzani, who was unharmed. This is according to a statement from the Iraqi prime minister's office, which was picked up by the Qatari broadcaster Al Jazeera.

Al-Sudani, the communiqué explains, spoke by telephone with the president of the Kurdish region, Nechirvan Barzani. It is unclear whether or not Barzani was in his home at the time of the attack, which, security sources explain, took place in the early hours of this morning.

"The United States has no intention of remaining in Iran for long'' where they have ''achieved most of the objectives'' they set themselves and where ''operations are advancing rapidly''. This was stated by US Vice President JD Vance, saying in an interview that ''we are not interested in staying in Iran in one or two years''. Moreover, US President Donald Trump will continue to support the military operation so that ''there is no repeat'' of Iran's nuclear threat, Vance added. ''We are accomplishing our task, we will leave soon and gas prices will come back down,'' the US vice-president assured.

Among the injured, according to doctors, are a 75-year-old man, injured by the collapse of the roof of his house, and a 47-year-old man, hit by the front door of his house, which was torn off by the explosion.

Zelensky was received in Doha by the Qatari Emir, Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, also in the presence of Premier Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al-Thani. Afterwards, the heads of staff of the two countries signed an agreement for joint projects in the defence industry, the opening of co-production sites and partnerships between the companies. "We discussed issues that can further strengthen the protection of lives in both countries and agreed on a positive partnership in the defence sector for at least ten years," the Ukrainian President wrote in a tweet.

"The main obstacle to ending the ongoing war between the US and Israel against Iran lies in the contradictory behaviour and unreasonable demands of the American side." This was stated by Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi, adding: 'The inconsistent actions and statements of the Americans have increased scepticism about their dishonesty'. According to the Isna news agency, Araghchi made this statement during a telephone conversation with his Turkish counterpart Hakan Fidan today, in which the latter expressed his country's readiness to play a constructive role in resolving the current crisis.

After reports from the Lebanese side, the Israeli military confirms the killing of a journalist working for al-Manar, a Lebanese TV station affiliated with Hezbollah. In a post on X, the Israeli Forces (IDF) announce that Ali Hassan Shaib, a terrorist from Hezbollah's Radwan Force who worked for years under the cover of journalist for the al-Manar network, has been "eliminated". The reporter is accused of having 'revealed IDF positions in southern Lebanon' and of having 'maintained direct contact with Hezbollah elements'. According to the Lebanese newspaper L'Orient Le Jour, four other people were also killed in the raid that hit a car in the Jezzine area, including Fatima Ftouni, a journalist of al-Mayadeen (pro-Hezbollah broadcaster), and two cameramen.

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian, in a telephone conversation with Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif today, praised Islamabad's 'mediation efforts to end US-Israeli aggression against Iran'.

The Indonesian government held talks with Iran to ensure the safe passage of its oil tankers through the Strait of Hormuz, after Tehran responded favourably to Jakarta's diplomatic efforts in this regard, a Foreign Ministry spokesman said.

The 'Pertamina Pride' and the 'Gamsunoro', two oil tankers belonging to a subsidiary of the state-owned energy company Pertamina, are still in the Persian Gulf waiting to cross the strait, a company spokesman confirmed.

Seven people were injured in an Iranian missile attack on a town in central Israel. This was reported by the Israeli rescue service Magen David Adom. Some people were injured in the impact of the explosion in Eshtaol, near Jerusalem, others were injured while seeking shelter.

For a month, 'digital darkness' in Iran. Denouncing it again is NetBlocks, an Internet observatory that has been following the situation in the Islamic Republic for days and notes how "exactly one month ago, on 28 February, on a Saturday morning, Iran plunged into digital darkness with the authorities cutting off access to the global Internet". "After four weeks, 672 hours," reads an update on NetBlocks' X, "the blackout remains, a violation of Iranians' right to communicate and stay informed. On 28 February, the start of US and Israeli military operations against Iran was announced and immediately the Iranian 'response' to the raids was triggered. In Iran, the BBC recalls, the authorities apply a two-tier system in which normal Internet access is a 'privilege' reserved for the regime and for most citizens everything is limited to the 'National Information Network'.

The Danish shipping company Maersk announced on its website that the port of Salalah in the Sultanate of Oman, which was hit by a drone attack in the morning, was evacuated 'immediately' and that its operations were suspended for 48 hours.

The Sultanate authorities had previously indicated that the attack injured one worker and caused minor damage to the port, one of the country's main ports. The port is operated by a subsidiary of Maersk, APM Terminals. It had already been targeted since the beginning of the conflict in the Middle East and the company had previously had to suspend operations.

"In just three weeks, more than 370,000 children have been forced to leave their homes in Lebanon, on average at least 19,000 girls and boys are displaced every day. To realise the scale of the phenomenon, it is as if every 24 hours hundreds of school buses full of children are running for their lives'. This is what Marcoluigi Corsi, Unicef's representative in Lebanon, says in a note. In less than a month, about 20 per cent of Lebanon's population has been displaced, he added, stressing that 'the speed and scale of this phenomenon are staggering'. Across the country, more than 1 million people are now displaced, many of them for the second, third or even fourth time. This is a sudden and chaotic mass displacement, which is separating families and emptying entire communities, with consequences that will be felt long after the violence has subsided, Unicef points out.

"The mental and emotional exhaustion weighing on the children of Lebanon is devastating. Without even having had a moment to recover from the trauma of the last escalation, which took place just 15 months ago, (the children) are again being forcibly uprooted. This relentless cycle of bombardment and displacement is severely aggravating their psychological wounds, entrenching a deep-seated fear and threatening to cause serious and lasting emotional damage," remarked Unicef's representative in Lebanon, Marcoluigi Corsi.

Three Lebanese journalists were killed by an Israeli raid on their car in southern Lebanon. This was stated by a military source to Afp.

A drone crashed inside the Majnoon oil field in Basra province in south-eastern Iraq without exploding. This was reported by the Iraqi Ministry of Defence, pointing out that no injuries or damage were reported. "At 08:30 on Saturday morning, 28 March 2026, a drone fell inside the Majnoon oil field, in the Al-Deir district of Basra governorate", "without exploding, and its fall caused no material damage or injuries", the MoD states on X. Majnoon, the main oil field in the south of the country, Arab media report, has reportedly already been hit by Iranian drones since the beginning of the war against Iran.

The United States believes it is safe to say that it has destroyed about one-third of Iran's vast missile arsenal as the war waged with Israel against the Islamic Republic nears the one-month mark. This was reported by five sources with knowledge of US intelligence to the Reuters news agency.

According to four of the sources, the situation of another third of the arsenal is less clear, but the bombing probably damaged, destroyed or buried those missiles in tunnels and underground bunkers.

The Israel Defence Forces issued an evacuation notice for several villages in southern Lebanon, urging residents to move north of the Zahrani River, according to a statement issued by the military spokesman in Arabic. Meanwhile, Israel Defence Forces spokesman Brigadier General Effie DefrinIsrael stated that Israel will disarm Hezbollah if the Lebanese government continues to fail to act, thus allowing the terrorist organisation to rearm and reorganise.

"We are negotiating now, and it would be great if we could do something, but they have to open it. They have to open the Trump Strait.... i mean Hormuz. Sorry, I'm so sorry. Terrible mistake." So said US President Donald Trump on the situation in the Strait of Hormuz, during a speech at the FII Priority Summit in Miami, during which he joked about the waterway, the main junction for oil and gas traffic closed by Iran.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky arrived in Qatar for a working visit after a stop in the United Arab Emirates. This was reported by Al Jazeera. The leader was welcomed at Doha International Airport by Foreign Minister Mohammed bin Abdulaziz Al-Khulaifi and the Ukrainian ambassador to Qatar.

In the international debate on digital security, cyber operations attributed to the Islamic Republic of Iran have often assumed apocalyptic tones, portrayed as immediate and catastrophic threats. However, a deeper analysis paints a less spectacular but more multifaceted picture: Iran does not aim for disruptive destructive strikes, but for constant, modular pressure, a scalable chaos that acts as an instrument of political and economic influence.

According to the report 'Iran cyber operations: effectiveness, limitations and implications' by the cybersecurity team of Maticmind - a Zenita Group company - in the peak of the escalation in February-March 2026, over six hundred attack claims were recorded in just seven days, attributed to forty-seven different groups, with nine active state clusters and eleven countries affected. The operational volume exceeded fifty claims per day, despite the fact that Iranian Internet connectivity had plummeted to 1-4 per cent. Behind these numbers, explains Pierguido Iezzi, cybersecurity director at Maticmind, there is a precise strategic logic: "The key is not to read Iranian cyber as an autonomous weapon, but as a component of a pattern effectively summarised in the Persian expression Jang and Ashub, war and chaos. Tools to produce pressure, saturation and negotiating leverage without necessarily crossing the threshold of outright conflict. The strategic value of the Iranian posture lies not so much in the ability to achieve a decisive destructive effect, but in the possibility of combining cyber operations, proxies, psychological pressure, information disorder and persistent access to wear down the adversary, increase its cost of defence and condition its decision-making process'.

Iran's President Masoud Pezeshkian warned the Gulf countries not to help the US if they want security. "We have repeatedly said that Iran does not carry out pre-emptive attacks, but we will react strongly if our infrastructure or economic centres are targeted. To the countries of the region: if you want development and security, do not allow our enemies to conduct war from your territories,' Pezeshkian said on X.

Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif reportedly had an hour-long telephone conversation with Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian, as Islamabad prepares to host talks with regional leaders and ministers on the Middle East crisis.

In a message posted on X, Sharif said he expressed Pakistan's solidarity with Iran and condemnation of the Israeli attacks. The premier also thanked Pezeshkian 'for his appreciation of Pakistan's sincere efforts to promote peace and facilitate dialogue in the region'. Earlier, the Pakistani Foreign Ministry had announced that diplomatic chief Ishaq Dar will meet his counterparts from Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Egypt in Islamabad to hold 'in-depth discussions on a range of issues, including efforts to reduce tensions in the region'.

Buildings of the Iranian University of Science and Technology were damaged after air raids on Saturday night, Iran International writes, showing a video. Yesterday, local Iranian authorities reported that at least 26 civilians, including women and children, were killed in a radi in Isfahan in an attack, reported the deputy governor of the province, as reported by Nbc, on a residential area of the city in central Iran

Iran's response to the US 15-point proposal to end the war has not yet been received. The Wall Street Journal reported this, citing sources close to the matter and 'mediators involved in the talks'. The sources pointed out that Pakistan is still waiting for a response from Iran. However, according to reports from Iran yesterday, the response has already been delivered and Tehran is awaiting a reply. The Wall Street Journal also reported that despite progress on other issues, Iran is expected to reject some of the US demands.

Iran claims to have struck a US ship 'in logistical support of US military aggression', 'at a considerable distance' from the port of Salala in Oman. This was announced by Ebrahim Zolfaghari, spokesman for the central military command, quoted on state television.

Bahrain, which hosts the US Fifth Fleet, said its air defence systems responded to 20 missile attacks and 23 drone strikes in the last 24 hours. This brings the total number of projectiles launched against the Shia-majority country to 174 missiles and 385 drones since the start of the Iran war on 28 February.

The news is making the rounds on social networks around the world that an Iranian-linked hacker group has hacked the personal email account of Kash Patel, director of the FBI, leaking private photographs and documents online, according to the hackers themselves and confirmed by the agency.

The group, which calls itself Handala Hack Team, claimed the attack by posting a series of personal images of Patel on its website, including shots of him smoking cigars, driving a classic car, and posing with a bottle of rum. The images are accompanied by a message stating that the official 'is now part of the list of successfully hacked victims'.

The IDF claimed to have killed two senior officials of Hezbollah's communications unit in an airstrike in Beirut overnight. This was reported in the Times of Israel, explaining that the victims were Ayyoub Hussein Yaacoub and Yasser Mohammad Mubarak, both senior members of the unit, which according to the army is responsible for "maintaining the continuity of communications" within Hezbollah and overseeing the "development, maintenance and use of communication systems" employed by the group. The Israeli Air Force and Navy carried out dozens of airstrikes against Hezbollah sites across Lebanon overnight, including in support of ground troops operating in the south.

An air raid hit the University of Science and Technology in Tehran, Iran, according to the state-run Irna news agency. The attack damaged buildings used for research and teaching, Irna reported citing the university's press office.

An airstrike hit the area of Iran's Bushehr nuclear power plant shortly before midnight, according to the Iranian Atomic Energy Agency. The attack, the third in 10 days, caused no material damage and there were no casualties, according to Iran's Atomic Energy Organisation. No technical failures were reported at the plant. The International Atomic Energy Agency said it had been informed of the attack by Tehran.

Six people were injured in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, after three fires broke out caused by debris from the interception of a ballistic missile, according to the emirate's press office. The fires, which broke out in the Khalifa Economic Zones area of Abu Dhabi near the Khalifa Port, have now been put out. Authorities said emergency teams responded to the incidents in the industrial zone, part of the AD Ports group, located between Abu Dhabi and Dubai.

From the attacks in Iran to tariffs to the capture of Maduro, Donald Trump's sudden decisions influence markets by causing sudden changes of course. The point is that, on several occasions, streams of unusual trades have been recorded before his announcements and not after, notes the Wall Street journal. And the last case dates back to 23 March 2026, writes the WSJ.

On Monday morning, Trump announced on Truth Social that he would postpone attacks on Iranian power plants due to 'productive' talks with Tehran. About 15 minutes before the post, a sudden flurry of activity hit the oil futures market and within two minutes from 6:49 a.m. to 6:51 a.m. Eastern Time, futures on Brent crude and West Texas Intermediate worth over $760 million were traded, according to Dow Jones market data. A similar surge of activity occurred simultaneously in futures on the S&P 500. For the detractors, someone knew in advance of the tycoon's move and was illicitly profiting from it, although there is no evidence of leaks or insider trading.

Pakistan will host talks with Saudi Arabia, Egypt and Turkey on the Middle East war next week. A senior Pakistani foreign ministry official told Afp. "We will host a quadrilateral meeting on Monday," the official said, adding that the exact representation of participants has not yet been confirmed.

The US military has launched more than 850 Tomahawk cruise missiles in the four-week war with Iran, consuming these precision weapons at a rate that has alarmed a section of the Pentagon and opened internal discussions on how to rapidly increase their availability. The Washington Post writes this today, citing informed sources.

The intense deployment of Tomahawks is forcing urgent reflection on the need to move some of them from other theatres, including the Indo-Pacific, and to strengthen their production in the long term, said the Washington Post.

Yemen's Houthis claim their first attack against Israel since the beginning of the war in the Middle East.

Sources consulted by the Associated Press reported that more than two dozen US soldiers were injured in Iranian attacks against a Saudi air base in recent days. Iran fired six ballistic missiles and 29 drones at the Saudi Prince Sultan air base in an attack on Friday that wounded at least 15 soldiers, five of them seriously, according to the sources, who spoke on condition of anonymity. US officials had initially reported that at least 10 soldiers were injured, two of them seriously. The base had already been attacked twice earlier this week, including one incident that injured 14 US soldiers, according to informed sources. Located about 96 kilometres from the Saudi capital Riyadh, the base is operated by the Royal Saudi Air Force, but is also used by US troops.

Five people died and 35 were injured in a US-Israeli attack on residential areas in Borujerd, in the Iranian province of Lorestan. This was stated by the deputy head of security of the Lorestan governorate, as reported by the Tasnim news agency. According to the local executive, in the early hours of today several residential buildings in Borujerd were hit by 'Zionist and American' attacks, causing the destruction of parts of the housing fabric and leaving some citizens trapped under rubble

NEW DELHI - "He is meticulous, but he is not a visionary". Less than a year ago, a former high-ranking Indian intelligence official described Asim Munir, the Pakistani army chief and the protagonist these days of a brokerage attempt between the US and Iran. In underestimating Munir - or in overestimating the current times - the former Indian agent has certainly made a big mistake. But at least he can console himself with the fact that he is in good company.

The first to commit the same blunder were those who saw his education as an insurmountable obstacle to reaching the top of the Pakistani military establishment. Unlike his predecessors, Munir is not a product of the prestigious Pakistan Military Academy in Abbottabad (the city that became famous for being Osama bin Laden's buen retiro), but of the more modest Officers Training School in Mangla, a small town in the portion of Kashmir administered by Pakistan on the border with India. Not periphery of the empire, but almost.

Ukraine is close to concluding several security agreements, in particular with the United Arab Emirates and Qatar, to strengthen defence against threats such as Iranian attacks, and is also looking at a possible involvement of China in peace efforts with Russia. This was stated by Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha on the sidelines of the G7 in France, stressing that "it is important not to lose the global focus on Ukraine, because everything is interconnected", in light of the escalation in the Middle East.

Kiev aims to consolidate international support as the war with Russia enters its fifth year and uncertainty grows over the military commitment of the United States, which is also engaged in the conflict with Iran.

A worker was injured in a drone attack on the port of Salalah, Oman, while a crane suffered limited damage. This was announced by the Omani government. Oman had played a mediating role between the US and Iran before the current war.

Explosions were heard in the Syrian capital Damascus and nearby areas, while Israeli air defences intercepted Iranian missiles in Syrian airspace. This was reported by Reuters citing Syrian state television.

Donald Trump stated that the US military still has 3,554 targets left to strike in Iran to complete the military operation against the Islamic Republic.

"We still have 3,554 targets to hit, and this will be done very cleanly," Trump said during a forum in Miami. The US president did not provide any specific data to support the statement and did not refer to either official Pentagon reports or information from the intelligence community.

The last amphibious operations conducted by the United States date back to the 2003 Iraq War, when American troops took control of oil facilities on the Al Faw Peninsula and met only little resistance, but to find the most recent large-scale amphibious attack scenario under enemy bombardment one has to go back as far as the Battle of Okinawa in 1945.

Now, this option is coming up again in the Iran war with the scenario of an American assault on Kharg Island.

Israel intercepted a missile launched from Yemen, the first such incident since the Middle East conflict began on 28 February. The event increases concerns about a possible direct entry into the conflict of the Iranian-backed Houthi rebels. In the past, the Houthis had already hit shipping traffic in the Red Sea during the war between Israel and Hamas, causing severe disruption to trade routes.

Thailand has announced that it has reached an agreement with Iran to allow its oil tankers to cross the strategic Strait of Hormuz, which has been virtually paralysed since the start of the war in the Middle East. "An agreement has been reached to allow Thai oil tankers to safely transit through the Strait of Hormuz, helping to alleviate concerns about the supply of fuel to Thailand," Thai Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul told a press conference.

The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) said it had been informed by Iran of a new attack in the area of the Bushehr nuclear power plant, the third such incident in 10 days. Tehran told the agency that there was no damage to the operating reactor and no radiation leakage, and that the plant was operating normally, the IAEA said. IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi warned that any attack that damages a reactor could trigger a major radiation incident, urging 'maximum military restraint'.

The United Arab Emirates suffered attacks by Iranian cruise missiles and drones. This was announced by the Emirati Ministry of Defence on X. "UAE air defences and fighter jets," it wrote, "are responding to missiles and drones launched by Iran.

There are 3,100 'No Kings' events scheduled to take place in the United States today. Organisers expect a record turnout for what is estimated to be the largest demonstration in American history. The 'No Kings' banner is a container of various causes ranging from fighting the authoritarian drift of the Trump administration to protests against ICE to those against the war in Iran.

The Israeli army claimed to have launched attacks against Iranian 'regime targets'. A short military communiqué states that 'Israeli forces are currently striking Iranian terrorist regime targets throughout Tehran', without providing further details. An AFP journalist in the capital Tehran reported hearing about 10 intense explosions and seeing a column of black smoke.

The key player in the diplomatic game over the Iran war is an unexpected, indeed hitherto marginalised name: Vice President JD Vance. A role due not to aggressive international ambitions, but rather to opposing credentials, as a sceptic of American interventions abroad, a vocal champion of a radical but more isolationist Maga conservatism.

It was Trump who suddenly accounted for the 41-year-old Vance's return to the spotlight. Listing his emissaries on Iran, he mentioned him alongside neocon redux hawk Marco Rubio and personal envoys, son-in-law Jared Kushner and friend Steve Witkoff. Mention all the more significant because Trump acknowledged Vance's lesser 'enthusiasm' for the attack on Tehran.

The Pentagon is considering deploying an additional 10,000 troops to the Middle East. If it goes ahead, the US could soon find itself with 17,000 troops in the area: not enough for an invasion, but enough to seize part of the territory, secure Iranian uranium, and take control of one of Tehran's islands. The Wall Street Journal reports this, pointing out that Donald Trump has not ordered the deployment of ground troops, preferring the diplomatic route for the time being.

The war in Iran will be over in a matter of weeks, not months. This was said by US Secretary of State Marco Rubio on the sidelines of the G7 meeting, emphasising that the US can achieve its objectives in the country without deploying ground troops although 'we are always prepared to provide the president with flexibility'. According to Axios reports, Rubio with the G7 foreign ministers spoke of '2-4 weeks' of conflict before the end.

"We have always stood by" Nato but in light of "its actions" in Iran "I guess we no longer have to be. Or are we?" Donald Trump said this while returning to attack the transatlantic alliance.

At least six fragments from an Iranian ballistic missile equipped with a cluster warhead hit central Israel, killing a man in his 60s who was not in an air raid shelter, while another fragment hit a residential building slightly injuring two men in their 50s, according to police and Magen David Adom. The Times of Israel reports. The Fire and Rescue Service says it handled a total of six impact sites, where damage was caused to buildings.
