Soroka hospital in the southern Israeli city of Beersheba has been hit by a ballistic missile, Israeli officials have said, after Iran launched its latest wave of retaliatory airstrikes on the country.

Unverified footage on social media showed people running through corridors filled with dust and detritus and doctors standing outside amid wreckage from the building.

“BREAKING: A direct hit has been reported at Soroka Hospital in Beersheba, southern Israel. More details to follow,” the foreign ministry posted on X.

A spokesperson for the hospital reported “damage to the hospital and extensive damage in various areas. We are currently assessing the damage, including injuries. We ask the public not to come to the hospital at this time.”

Sirens sounded across the country earlier, and Israeli media reported that several loud blasts were also heard in central Israel with several other direct hits reported. Explosions were heard over Tel Aviv and Jerusalem.

It beats my imagination how Iran thinks they can win this war by attacking civilians facilities instead of going after the government

The Israelis started it. They bombed a civilian facility in Iran, Iran is only retaliating.

The Israelis bombed a media house and a hospital in Iran.
