At least six people were wounded following shrapnel hitting the Tel Aviv area after an Iranian missile was intercepted on Tuesday morning, Magen David Adom announced.

A missile with a 100-kilogram warhead hit the site, according to Israeli media reports citing Israel Police's Tel Aviv district commander.

Multiple buildings were damaged in the Tel Aviv area following the incident.

Video footage shared on Israeli media also appears to show a vehicle on fire in the area following a hit.

The Israel Fire and Rescue Authority announced that firefighters had been dispatched to Tel Aviv and extinguished several vehicle fires.

The IFRA also conducted search operations at a building that suffered damage in Tel Aviv, finding that people successfully reached the shelter, which protected them from the hit.

United Hatzalah stated that its emergency responders were being dispatched to the scenes of several sites across the region following receiving reports of shrapnel falling across the area.

IDF Search and Rescue soldiers were also dispatched to the area after reports of hits were received.

MDA also noted that several people were treated for minor injuries sustained en route to shelters after sirens sounded.

Additionally, the Rosh Ha’ayin municipality confirmed that shrapnel hit several sites in the city, but emphasized that there was no direct missile impact within the city.

Emergency responders are investigating reports of additional hits in an open area near the city, the municipality added.

The municipality also announced that part of a missile fell on Route 444, and roadblocks have been established in the vicinity, and emergency responders, including police bomb diffusion units, are at the scene.

Sirens also sounded in the Beersheba area at approximately 9 a.m. following the detection of an Iranian missile launch.

A large missile fragment hit the ground in an open area within Samaria, footage shared by Israel's public broadcaster KAN News shows.

Initial reports also indicate that shrapnel fell in the Haifa area at approximately 10:30 a.m. following two waves of rocket launches from Hezbollah terrorists in Lebanon.

No injuries have been reported as part of these barrages.

This is a developing story.
