Reports of four potential impact sites after Iran’s missile salvo
Reporting from Amman, JordanAl Jazeera is reporting from Amman, Jordan, because it has been banned from Israel and the occupied West Bank.
Israeli media is now reporting that about 20 missiles were fired from Iran. We haven’t had confirmation of that from Israel’s military.
It’s just an hour now since those missiles impacted or were destroyed as they tried to make their way to Israeli airspace.
There are reports of four potential impact sites.
If 20 missiles were fired and there are four impact sites, then they’re not all being intercepted – and we know earlier on this morning, there was a failure on a defence rocket.
This afternoon, we’ve had more hits in Haifa. It appears to be a building located in the centre of a government district.
What happens in Israel is these pictures go on social media very quickly, of course, when impacts happen, but there are very strict wartime censorship rules in Israel, recently tightened with threats of jail if people reveal locations of what are considered sensitive or military locations that have been hit by missiles.
