“The missile fired toward Soroka Medical Center is an act of terror and crosses a red line,” Health Minister Uriel Buso says.
“It is a war crime by the Iranian regime, deliberately targeting innocent civilians and medical teams dedicated to saving lives. The Health Ministry was prepared in advance, and thanks to the immediate actions we took, a major disaster was averted,” he says.
“I urge the public: Please continue to follow Home Front Command instructions. It saves lives.”
