Iran has said it fired Sejjil-2 solid-fueled medium-range ballistic missiles toward Israel.
As reported by CNN, Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps stated this in a statement on Wednesday, June 18
We reports that Iran has fired approximately 400 ballistic missiles and 1,000 drones at Israel since the conflict between the two nations reached new worrying heights on Friday, June 13.
The statement said: “The twelfth wave of the True Promise3 has begun with the launch of super-heavy, long-range, Sejjil-2 missiles.”
Iran allegedly fired two waves of ballistic missiles at Israel overnight Tuesday, June 17, with the first barrage beginning around 12:40 a.m. and the second approximately 40 minutes later, as sirens sounded across central Israel and parts of Judea and Samaria.
The first salvo reportedly involved roughly 15 missiles, while the second involved about 10
Most of the missiles were intercepted, but at least one impacted central Israel, igniting a fire in a parking lot and damaging several vehicles. Firefighters responded to the blaze, though it remained unclear whether the fire was caused by a direct hit or debris from an interception.

There were no reports of injuries from either barrage as of Wednesday morning, June 18. Material damage was limited, with the most significant incident being the fire in the central Israel parking lot
Legit reports that Israel’s escalating attacks have killed more than 240 people, including 70 women and children, in Iran. In retaliation, Iran has fired dozens of missiles and hundreds of drones, killing at least 24 people in Israel, wounding hundreds and forcing Israelis across the country to take cover in bomb shelters.
Following the calls by the United States (US) for Iran to surrender, the warring country’s supreme leader, Ali Khamenei, rejected them and warned that any military involvement by the Americans would cause “irreparable damage to them.”
