An Iranian missile fragment hit a residential building in Jerusalem, used by the US consul.

The war in the Middle East is escalating, and the exchanges of rockets between Iran and Israel are causing significant collateral damage. Recently, a fragment of an Iranian rocket hit a residential building in Jerusalem, used by the U.S. consul in Israel, according to reports from the Israeli press. Although Israel has a strong air defense that intercepts most rockets and drones, their debris continues to cause damage and casualties. Additionally, Iran has announced the use of a new type of rocket, Sejil, which has a range of 2,000 to 2,500 kilometers. This ballistic missile, introduced into service in 2014, costs approximately $500,000 each. Further details about the incident in Jerusalem are not yet available.
