Iranian missile hits US embassy in Tel Aviv

An Iranian missile has damaged the American embassy in Israel, according to reports this morning.

The development was confirmed by US ambassador to Israel, Mike Huckabee.

He said the US embassy branch in Tel Aviv suffered damage from a volley of Iranian missiles that targeted the area early Monday.

“Some minor damage from concussions of Iranian missile hits near Embassy Branch in @TelAviv but no injuries to US personnel,” he wrote on X.

He added that the American embassies and consulates remain closed, with a shelter in place order still in effect

Meanwhile, this is coming after President Donald Trump had warned Iran not to strike US targets on Sunday, saying the “full strength and might” of America’s military could be used against the country.

Iran launched early morning attacks on Tel Aviv and the northern city of Haifa as conflict between the two nations entered its fourth day of open warfare, killing at least eight people and injuring dozens.

Concern over whether the US could be dragged further into the conflict has continued to grow as its forces in the Middle East help shield Israel from Iran’s missile barrage.

Iranian state TV said the country fired at least 100 missiles at Israel overnight, signalling that it has no intention of yielding to international calls for de-escalation.
