Israel’s deputy foreign minister Sharren Haskel calls Iran’s ballistic missile strike on Beersheba’s Soroka hospital “deliberate” and “criminal.”
“Iran just hit Soroka Hospital in Be’er Sheva with a ballistic missile. Not a military base. A hospital. This is the main medical center for Israel’s entire Negev region. Deliberate. Criminal. Civilian target. The world must speak out,” Sharren Haskel writes on X.
