Israel orders more strikes on Iran after missiles hit hospital in southern Israel

# A hospital in southern Israel and two towns near Tel Aviv were struck after a barrage of Iranian missiles this morning, with rescuers reporting at least 47 people injured in the latest attacks. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warned that Iran would “pay a heavy price” after the strike on Soroka Hospital in Beersheba, while Defence Minister Israel Katz said the army had been ordered to “intensify” strikes on Iran. AFP footage showed smoke billowing from the complex, which is also known to treat soldiers wounded in Gaza.
