Iran has launched another round of missiles towards Israel, with reports of a loud explosion in Jerusalem. The state-run Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB) confirmed the attack, stating that Iranian missiles had passed through several Israeli missile defenses. The Magen David Adom emergency services reported damage to a building in northern Israel, but no fatalities.

The Israeli military had earlier issued warnings of incoming Iranian missiles and was working to intercept them. This latest attack comes amid escalating tensions between Iran and Israel, with both sides trading strikes in recent days.

The international community has expressed concern over the escalating conflict, with calls for restraint and a return to negotiations. The situation remains volatile, with the potential for further escalation.
