A missile struck a bus parking lot in Israel’s Dan District, causing a fire but no reported injuries, Israeli emergency services said.

Following earlier sirens, Magen David Adom teams -- Israel's national emergency service -- were dispatched to search affected areas. Firefighters are responding at multiple scenes. A bus in a town north of Tel Aviv also sustained a direct hit.

Around 30 missiles were fired from Iran on Tuesday morning, with several impact sites reported in central Israel, according to Israel’s N12 news outlet.

"It's time to leave Qatar, Kuwait, the UAE, and Bahrain immediately," Mohammed Marandi wrote on X after US President Trump told residents of Tehran to quit the city.

G7 says backs Israel's self-defense, calls Iran a source of terror

Jun 17, 2025, 04:39 GMT+1

“We, the leaders of the G7, reiterate our commitment to peace and stability in the Middle East. In this context, we affirm that Israel has a right to defend itself. We reiterate our support for the security of Israel," leaders from the bloc meeting in Alberta, Canada said on Monday.

"We also affirm the importance of the protection of civilians. Iran is the principal source of regional instability and terror. We have been consistently clear that Iran can never have a nuclear weapon."

"We urge that the resolution of the Iranian crisis leads to a broader de-escalation of hostilities in the Middle East, including a ceasefire in Gaza. We will remain vigilant to the implications for international energy markets and stand ready to coordinate, including with like-minded partners, to safeguard market stability.”
