❗️After bombing 36 civilian hospitals in Gaza, Netanyahu vows Iran will ‘pay a heavy price’ for missile strike on vicinity of Soroka hospital, which hosts military & intelligence targets.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warned on 19 June that Iran would “pay a heavy price” following its missile strikes targeting military and intelligence facilities adjacent to Soroka hospital in Beersheva.
“This morning, Iran’s terrorist dictators fired missiles at Soroka Hospital in Be’er Sheva and at civilians in the centre of the country,” Netanyahu wrote on X. “We will make the tyrants in Tehran pay a heavy price.”
Iran’s state-run IRNA news agency reported on 19 June that the primary target of its missile strike was the Israeli army’s Command and Intelligence (C4I) headquarters and military intelligence camp located in the Gav-Yam Technology Park in Beersheba.
According to IRNA, the site is adjacent to Soroka hospital, which only suffered minor damage from the shockwave resulting from the missile strike. The agency added: “The military infrastructure was a precise and direct target.”
This follows Israel’s bombing of 36 civilian hospitals in Gaza under Netanyahu since October 2023, decimating the strip’s healthcare infrastructure and rendering nearly all facilities nonfunctional.
