The Israelis say that more than 65 people were wounded when a missile fired by Iran hit the Soroka Medical Center in the Negev desert city of Be’er Sheva. The IDF says it was a direct hit.
Iran acknowledged damaging the hospital but claims, via the Islamic Republic News Agency, that it was aiming for a military target, supposedly at the “Gav-Yam Technology Park,” next to the hospital.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu took to social media Thursday morning to say Israel will “exact the full price” from Iran following its missile barrage on civilians.
In a post to his X account, Netanyahu called out Iran's “terrorist tyrants” for launching missiles at Soroka Hospital and at civilians in the center of the country.
“We will exact the full price from the tyrants in Tehran," Netanyahu wrote on X.
