Two seriously wounded, one moderately, after Iranian missile hits Haifa; 14 lightly hurt

ISRAEL, JUN 20 – Iran fired over 25 missiles in a retaliatory strike injuring 21 people and damaging two historic mosques in Haifa, escalating the ongoing conflict with Israel, officials said.

  • On June 20, 2025, Iran launched around 25 missiles targeting multiple locations in Israel, including Haifa, where at least 21 people were injured.
  • The missile attack followed Israeli airstrikes on Iranian nuclear and military sites on June 13, escalating hostilities between the two arch-enemies into their eighth day.
  • Missiles struck areas in northern, central, and southern Israel, including Haifa's Al-Jarina mosque, causing injuries and damage, while Israel's defense systems activated to intercept many rockets.
  • Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps declared the missile barrage a 'legal' response to Israeli 'terror attacks' following the killings of Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iranian leaders, adding Tehran's reply will be 'more crushing' if retaliated.
  • The attack intensified regional tensions, prompting Denmark’s Maersk to temporarily suspend vessel calls in Haifa, while the US maintains readiness to support Israel’s defense amid ongoing conflict.
