Video footage captured the horrific aftermath of a ballistic missile attack on Ramat Gan, east of Tel Aviv, on Tuesday night that killed at least two people, according to Israeli officials.
The footage shows a car engulfed in flames with debris scattered across the road as emergency responders assess the scene with ambulance sirens blaring in the background.
The missile was launched by Iran’s paramilitary Revolutionary Guard, which said it targeted central Israel in revenge for the killing of Ali Larijani, the secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council and one of the country’s most powerful men.
Iran’s Revolutionary Guard said it launched Khorramshahr-4 and Kadra multiple-warhead missiles, which it claims have increased chances of evading missile defense systems and can affect radar tracking.

Israel said the two victims killed in the overnight attack were a couple in their 70s.
The attack is part of a rapidly escalating tit-for-tat conflict that began after US and Israeli attacks on Iran on February 28, which killed several senior Iranian officials. They include Larijani and General Gholam Reza Soleimani, the head of the Revolutionary Guard’s Basij militia, who was killed on Tuesday.

The broader conflict has raised fears of regional war and potential disruption to global energy supplies, as Iran also threatens shipping through the Strait of Hormuz – a vital transit route for the world’s oil.
