A red alert has been declared in Jerusalem, Israel, following reports of an Iranian missile strike on the city. The attack, which occurred just four minutes after a warning was issued, has sent residents into a state of panic.
Details of the Attack
The incident occurred at approximately 10:45 PM local time, when a rocket was launched from the Gaza Strip, sparking a warning siren throughout the city. Eyewitnesses claim that the missile exploded in a residential area, causing widespread damage and disruption.
While the Israeli government has yet to confirm the source of the missile, speculation suggests that Iran may be responsible for the attack. Tensions between Iran and Israel have been escalating in recent months, with the two nations engaged in a tense game of cat and mouse.

Effects on Civilian Population
