Dramatic footage captured the moment a fragment from an Iranian ballistic missile crashed into Jerusalem’s Old City after the projectile was intercepted mid-air.
According to the IDF, the missile was successfully shot down, but falling debris struck a parking lot in the Jewish Quarter, approximately 400 meters—about 1,300 feet—from the Kosel and Har Habayis. No injuries were reported.
The incident came amid a wave of Iranian missile attacks, with Tehran launching at least eight salvos between midnight and Friday afternoon. At least two of the barrages are believed to have included cluster munitions, causing damage across multiple locations and leaving several civilians injured.
In the central city of Rechovot, one home was set ablaze, while missile fragments struck as many as 8 to 10 separate sites. In one case, part of a missile tore into a residential living room. A man and woman in their 70s were lightly wounded in the blasts.
Israel’s Health Ministry reported that more than 4,000 people have been hospitalized since the start of the war, though many injuries were linked to panic or attempts to reach shelters during incoming fire.
At the same time, Israel has continued to press its offensive deep inside Iran.
The IDF confirmed it has killed several high-ranking Iranian figures in recent days, including senior members of the Basij militia and intelligence apparatus. Among them was the group’s intelligence chief, as well as a top official in Iran’s Intelligence Ministry accused of orchestrating attacks against Israeli and Jewish targets worldwide.

It would be great if an Iranian missile hits the Dome of the Rock and destroys that mosque
I’m grappling with a very big hashkafa
Heard once that rabbi yakov kamenetski once said that even if aliens do exist on other planets, they don’t have a Torah, told that to a respected person and he didn’t believe me, but the problem is this, it says in the mishnah “always see this day as if it was the last” meaning that all of your actions are eternal nothing is for naught, if rabbi akiva eger would of thought that he can sleep some, and rest, and then he will come back in a gilgul or in another six thousand years, he would go to sleep, the reason why he toiled was cause he knew that all his action automatically are eternal and never come back, the minute you lose is lost forever and never come again in eternity
So what hurts me is the conflict, the Gemara says that world will exist for six thousand years, can understand that even if you can come back as a gilgul let’s say as your great grand son, all your actions now are for eternity no matter, but according to a certain view the world and it’s inhabitants will start over again and come in another whatever thousand years and then again in a certain thousand years later, them it means not only will we have to suffer all the pain and galus again but that it’s not the true eternity for ever and ever
I have a big problem with this shita about the world as shmita for thousand of years, and if the person of that shita doesn’t come to tell me about shmita then his gilgul should
