Hezbollah missiles pummel Tel Aviv, numerous wounded, killed
A barrage of missiles from Lebanon toward Tel Aviv causes significant damage after Israeli air defenses fail to intercept.
The Israeli occupation army confirmed Monday that Tel Aviv had been targeted by several advanced missiles, resulting in significant damage and power outages in parts of the area.
It was reported that numerous people were wounded, and at least two killed. The final toll is yet to be revealed.
An Israeli media outlet reported that the missile fired from Lebanon and that landed in Tel Aviv was a Fateh 110 missile.
This surface-to-surface missile, recognized for its significant destructive power, is engineered to strike critical targets with pinpoint accuracy within a margin of up to 10 meters.
Israeli media reported that at least one missile landed in Ramat Gan, a central city in the Tel Aviv area, causing a power outage in the area.
