Authorities demolish Beersheba apartment complex damaged in Iranian missile strike

Authorities in Beersheba are demolishing an apartment complex in the southern city that was hit directly by an Iranian ballistic missile in the final hours of June’s 12-day war.

The missile strike on June 24 killed four, including Cpl. Eitan Zacks, 18, his mother, Michal Zacks, 50, and his girlfriend, Noa Boguslavsky, 18, along with a neighbor, Naomi Shaanan, 73.

The large apartment building was relatively new, and its homes had reinforced rooms. However, the missile directly hit two safe rooms on the sixth floor, causing extensive destruction, including the collapse of part of the building. One of the bomb-safe rooms was destroyed by the impact of the estimated 500-kilogram warhead.

The building is being razed by demolition excavators, footage shows.
