In the same attack, a high-voltage power line was damaged in Rosh Ha’ayin, leaving part of the city without electricity.

Rescue services are continuing to assess the area to confirm the extent of the damage.

This incident is part of escalating tensions between Iran and Israel, with Tehran using missiles equipped with cluster bombs to increase their range and impact on urban areas.

The situation continues to be monitored by Israeli authorities, who are urging the public to remain in safe areas.
