Bnei Brak, Israel: Israel’s emergency services said Tuesday that eight people with minor injuries were evacuated to hospitals in the Tel Aviv area, where police reported falling munitions fragments after an alert for incoming Iranian missiles.
Six of the injured were treated in the city of Bnei Brak, which is largely populated by ultra-Orthodox Jews, according to Magen David Adom, Israel’s equivalent of the Red Cross.
It specified that they were in mild condition with blast injuries.
The military’s Home Front Command said it had received “reports of damage” in the central parts of the country.
Earlier on Tuesday, at least 10 blasts were heard in the Jerusalem area after missile launches from Iran were detected though no injuries were subsequently reported.
