Dubai, United Arab Emirates On Thursday, the main southern hospital in Israel achieved a direct success from an Iranian missile, as officials reported “extensive damage.”

Separate Iranian strikes struck a tall residential building in Tel Aviv and other locations in central Israel. A hospital in Tel Aviv said that 16 people had received three serious injuries.

Journalists at Agence France -Presse reported to hear “violent and sustainable explosions” in Tel Aviv and Jerusalem.

The developments came when President Trump was studying whether the United States would participate directly in Israel’s efforts to destroy the Iranian nuclear program.

A spokesman for the Soroka Medical Center in Bira Shaba said that the hospital suffered “severe damage” in different areas and people were injured in the attack. The hospital asked that people not come there for treatment.

Israeli officials said that the hospital part, which achieved direct success, was evacuated before the strike.

“Last night, the Ministry of Health has gave instructions to continue wiping the ground that was damaged in Soroka. Many lives were rescued,” said Magen David Adom, general manager of the emergency rescue service in Israel.

Israeli Minister of Health, Aryil Buso, described the attack as “a terrorist act and expressing a red line. A war crime by the Iranian regime, which was deliberately committed against innocent civilians and the medical teams designated to save lives.

The hospital contains more than 1000 beds and provides services to about a million people in southern Israel, according to its website.

Iranian government television said on Thursday that the strike attacked Israel a heavy water reactor in Iran.

The report said, “There is no radiological risk at all.” An Iranian government television correspondent, which appears directly in the nearby town of Khundab, said that the facility had been evacuated and there was no harm to the civil areas around the reactor.

Israel had warned earlier Thursday morning that it would attack the facility and urged the audience to flee the area.

The Israeli army said that the round of the air strikes, which continued on Thursday, targeted Tehran and other areas in Iran, without a situation. She later said that Iran launched a new missile sulfo in Israel and asked the public to shelter.

The seventh day of the Israeli air strikes in Iran came a day after we rejected the supreme leader of Iran, our calls for surrender and warned that any military participation by the Americans may cause “irreplaceable damage to them.” Israel also raised some restrictions on daily life, indicating that the threat of missiles from Iran on its territory was mitigating.

Indeed, Israel’s campaign targeted the Iranian uranium enrichment site in Natanz, a central expulsion workshop on Tehran and a nuclear site in ISAN. Her strikes also killed senior generals and nuclear scientists.

An Iranian -based Iranian human rights group said that at least 639 people, including 263 civilians, were killed in Iran and more than 1,300 wounded. In revenge, Iran launched about 400 missiles and hundreds of drones, killing at least 24 people in Israel and wounding hundreds. Some hit residential buildings in central Israel, causing severe damage.

The heavy water reactor is located in Arak 155 miles southwest of Tehran.

Heavy water helps cold nuclear reactors, but it produces plutonium as a secondary product that can be used in nuclear weapons. It would provide Iran another way to the bomb outside the enriched uranium, in case of selecting weapons.

Iran agreed, according to its 2015 nuclear deal with the global powers to redesign the facility to alleviate the deployment concerns.

In 2019, Iran began in the secondary department of the Heavy Water Reactor, which at that time did not violate the Tehran nuclear deal for 2015 with global powers.

Britain at the time was helping Iran to redesign the Arak reactor to reduce the amount of plutonium it produced, as it interfered in the United States, which withdrew from the project after President Trump’s decision in 2018 to remove America unilaterally from the nuclear deal.

The International Atomic Energy Agency, the United Nations World Nuclear Agency, urges Israel not to hit Iranian nuclear sites. According to what was reported, the Inspectors of the International Atomic Energy Agency visited the last time on May 14.

Because of the restrictions imposed by Iran on the inspectors, the International Atomic Energy Agency said it had lost “the continuity of knowledge” on the production of heavy water in Iran – which means that it was unable to completely verify the production of Tehran and its stores.

As part of the negotiations on the 2015 deal, Iran has agreed to sell its heavy water to the west to stay in compliance with the terms of the agreement. Even the United States bought about 32 tons of heavy water for more than $ 8 million in one deal. This was one case that has caused criticism from the opponents of the agreement.
