Air-raid sirens were activated Tuesday morning across central Israel and parts of Samaria after Iran launched a ballistic missile carrying a cluster warhead. One of the explosive fragments struck a residential building in Petah Tikva. No injuries were reported in that incident.

A cluster bomb disperses approximately 20 smaller munitions at an altitude of roughly seven kilometers above the intended target. Those submunitions then scatter across an area spanning about eight kilometers.

Iran is believed to possess three models of ballistic missiles equipped with cluster warheads, including the Qader and the Khorramshahr, both of which have the range to reach Israel. While such missiles are not capable of breaching a reinforced safe room, they can still inflict damage and cause injuries in exposed areas.

Earlier Tuesday morning, a separate attack occurred in the north when a rocket fired from Lebanon struck a private residence in Kfar Yuval in the Galilee Panhandle.

Fire and rescue personnel who arrived at the scene confirmed that the house sustained a direct hit.

The four residents inside the home were conscious when first responders reached them. They suffered blast-related injuries and were treated initially at the scene. Emergency crews remained in the area to evaluate structural damage and ensure there were no additional hazards.

Magen David Adom paramedics administered care on site and transported two individuals to Ziv Medical Center: a 64-year-old man with light injuries caused by shattered glass, and a 24-year-old woman suffering from shock. Two other residents treated for shock were not taken to the hospital.
