Iran fires missiles at southern and northern Israel — both intercepted, no injuries

Iran launched a ballistic missile at southern Israel, triggering sirens in Beersheba and surrounding areas. The missile was intercepted according to initial military assessments. No injuries were reported. A separate Iranian missile fired at northern Israel was also intercepted. The dual-direction attack — southern and northern Israel simultaneously — follows Iran's established pattern of targeting multiple Israeli regions to spread air defense resources. Beersheba is home to Soroka Medical Center, Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, and is the largest city in southern Israel. Sirens in Beersheba have become routine on Day 12, though all missiles have been intercepted or hit open areas. The continued low-rate missile fire despite Iranian launcher stockpile having been 65% destroyed indicates Iran is carefully rationing remaining launchers while maintaining psychological pressure. With CENTCOM confirming strike waves hourly from multiple directions, and Hezbollah firing 100 rockets in parallel, Iran is coordinating a multi-axis military pressure campaign even as its total capabilities continue to degrade.
