Tel Aviv in ruins after Iran's counterattack, rescue operation underway


Published: 12:44 23 June 2025
Israeli police and emergency services are carrying out rescue operations after several buildings in Tel Aviv were damaged in Iran's recent counterattack. Israeli police said that the injured have been evacuated from the damaged buildings so far, but search operations are continuing as there are fears that some people may still be trapped in the rubble.
Earlier, international media claimed that the United States had struck three important nuclear facilities in Iran. In response to the attack, Iran has been increasing tensions across the Middle East by launching missiles in series, one of which was aimed at various facilities in Israel.
According to Israeli media sources, approximately 30 rockets were fired in the latest attack. Although some rockets were shot down by air defense systems, some rockets hit the city of Tel Aviv, causing significant damage there.
Many local residents said they were woken up by the sound of the explosion and fled to safer places in panic. The injured have been admitted to local hospitals and the army and special rescue teams are taking part in the rescue operation.
Currently, a high alert is in place across Tel Aviv and the general public has been urged to refrain from unnecessary movements. The international community has called on both sides to exercise restraint amid the tension.
Analysts believe that this recent situation has further complicated the security situation in the Middle East.
