4 bodies retrieved from wreckage of building hit by Iranian missile in northern Israel: Media

The bodies of four people were recovered on Monday from the rubble of a building hit by an Iranian ballistic missile in the northern Israeli city of Haifa late Sunday, according to Israeli media reports.

The Times of Israel, citing rescue services, said the bodies were found after hours of search efforts following the strike.
Two bodies were recovered early Monday, and two more were found later in the day.

Israel’s public broadcaster KAN said the four were trapped under rubble after the missile hit a 5-story building in Haifa.
Israel’s national emergency service MDA said late Sunday that eleven Israelis were injured and four others were missing following the missile attack.

Channel 12 reported that missile fragments fell in at least three locations in Haifa, causing significant damage.

Regional escalation has continued to flare since the US and Israel launched a joint offensive on Iran on Feb. 28, killing so far over 1,340 people, including then-Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei.

Iran has retaliated with drone and missile strikes targeting Israel, along with Jordan, Iraq, and Gulf countries hosting US military assets, causing casualties and damage to infrastructure while disrupting global markets and aviation.
