Father of girl seriously injured by shrapnel during Iran attack: ‘It fell on the house, she was sleeping’

Mohammed, the father of the girl who was seriously injured during the interception of a projectile fired at Israel by Iran last night, says the shrapnel fell on their home.

“It fell on us into the house at around 2 in the morning. She was sleeping in the house and we immediately took her to Soroka Hospital [in Beersheba],” he says.

The 7-year-old girl — who has not been publicly named — was wounded by shrapnel from the interception of a ballistic missile. The girl lives in a Bedouin town near Arad.
