Around 59 people were wounded - most lightly - by Iranian missile strikes on Dimona in southern Israel, according to Israeli emergency services Magen David Adom, as reported by multiple Israeli media outlets.
The area is home to Israel's nuclear research facility and a power plant — making it one of the most sensitive targets Iran has struck since the war began.
Earlier Saturday, Iran accused the United States and Israel of striking its Natanz nuclear site.
Natanz is Iran's most important uranium enrichment facility, the heart of its nuclear program and one of the primary targets of the US-Israeli campaign since Operation Epic Fury was launched on February 28.
The city of Arad, located 25 kilometers from Dimona, sustained another direct missile impact, causing significant damage and injuries, emergency services announced, following the military's warning of an imminent incoming missile attack from Iran.
Loud booms were heard on Tuesday night near the headquarters of Saudi Arabia's state-owned oil company, the world's largest and the backbone of the kingdom's economy, in Dhahran, six sources told Reuters, amid an escalating war between Yemen's Iran-allied Houthis and a Saudi-led coalition.
Iran is stepping up attempts to hit harder targets such as military sites in Britain and Russia is increasing its hybrid warfare against Ukraine's allies, the UK's domestic spy chief said on Tuesday.
Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI) on Monday presented HawkGuard, a new system designed to counter attack drones, at the AUSA 2026 defense exhibition in Washington.
