A hospital in the Israeli town of Beersheba has been hit as Iran fired a barrage of missiles, with the conflict between the two countries continuing into a seventh day.

Iran said the strike had targeted a military site close to the hospital, not the facility itself. Dozens of people were reported injured in several locations across Israel, including near Tel Aviv.

After visiting the Soroka Medical Centre on Thursday, Israel’s Defence Minister Israel Katz said Iran’s supreme leader “can no longer be allowed to exist”.

Meanwhile, Israel’s military said it had targeted Iran’s nuclear sites including the “inactive” Arak heavy water reactor and Natanz facility.

    How accurate are Iranian missiles compared to Israeli jets? Is this an issue of limited accuracy or intentional targeting?

    I’m presently willing to give more benefit of the doubt to Iran regarding missiles fired from hundreds (thousands?) of miles away than I am to Israel who has a very strong track record of intentionally targeting civilians in undeniable ways (e.g. snipers shooting children). Past behavior is a fair reason to be biased.

    Only a monster wants to see civilian deaths. Realistically, I don’t consider military deaths as “good” either; in modern combat it’s more about military structures and equipment.
