Iran’s Cluster Bomb Blitz Targets Israeli Hospital, Civvy Hubs

The IDF has the receipts: Iran unleashed a cluster munition on Israel, and it’s as ugly as it sounds.

 
Here’s the deal: the missile’s warhead was packed with mini-bombs, like cluster bombs used in Vietnam, each lugging 2.5 kg of boom. At 7 km up, it cracked open like a piñata from hell, scattering its payload across an 8 km radius. The Home Front Command dropped the bombshell Thursday, confirming one of Iran’s morning missiles was a cluster job.

 
“The missile’s warhead held several small munitions, each one with 2.5 kg of explosives,” they said. This thing wasn’t messing around, it split at 7 km altitude, flinging its deadly confetti far and wide. The Command says it’s a known beast, designed to detonate on impact.

 
Ground zero was above Azor, just southeast of Tel Aviv. Some of these mini-bombs were duds, which is somehow worse, unexploded ordnance just chilling, ready to ruin someone’s day. “The public is asked not to approach them and to immediately call a bomb disposal team,” the Command stressed. 

Thursday’s barrage was a monster as dozens of missiles raining down, smashing Soroka Hospital and buildings in Tel Aviv, Holon, and Ramat Gan. Israel’s defense systems was able to intercept some, but this was the biggest salvo in the last 48 hours. Magen David Adom tallied 95 injuries in Gush Dan, six critical.

The cops released footage from the Ramat Gan stock exchange complex, and it’s grim. Buildings look like they got hit by a wrecking ball—a three-story structure and a high-rise office tower across from it, both mangled. Firefighters and police were all over it, busting into apartments to pull out trapped residents. Some doors got kicked in ‘cause time wasn’t on their side.

Iran’s playing dirty, and Israel’s picking up the pieces.
