Strikes hit central and southern areas amid escalating Iran-Israel-US conflict; damage reports emerge online
Iran launched at least three successive waves of missile attacks on Israel on Sunday, striking areas in central parts of the country and triggering air raid sirens across several regions, according to reports circulating on social media and statements cited by Drop Site News.
The reported barrage targeted multiple locations, with missiles impacting sites in central Israel, while another wave was directed toward the southern part of the country.
Initial accounts indicated that the strikes caused damage in some areas, though the full extent of casualties or destruction was not immediately clear.
Videos and eyewitness reports shared online showed explosions and interception attempts as Israeli air defence systems responded to the incoming projectiles.
Authorities issued alerts urging residents in affected regions to seek shelter while emergency services assessed potential impact sites.
The attacks come amid escalating regional tensions between Iran and Israel and the US, with both sides exchanging strikes during the ongoing conflict that has already drawn in multiple actors across the Middle East.

Images circulating on social media showed damage to buildings and infrastructure in Holon, south of Tel Aviv, following the reported Iranian missile strikes, though the extent of the destruction and any casualties could not be independently verified.
Previous missile barrages in the conflict have targeted major population centres and infrastructure across Israel, sometimes causing injuries and significant property damage despite interception efforts by air defence systems.
There was no immediate official statement from Israeli authorities detailing the scale of damage from the latest strikes, while Iranian officials have framed previous missile launches as retaliation for Israeli and US military actions in the region.
