Iranian Rocket Hits Hospital; Dozens Hurt in Barrage IFCJ Canada | June 19, 2025 Smoke rises from the scene where a ballistic missile fired from Iran hit and caused damage at the Soroka Medical Center in Be'er Sheva, June 19, 2025. (Photo: Dudu Greenspan/Flash90) Home and communities were targets of the attacks, including a hospital: Iran fired a barrage of some 30 ballistic missiles early Thursday, scoring a direct hit on Israel’s main southern hospital, the Soroka Medical Center, and two other impacts in the central cities of Holon and Ramat Gan that wounded dozens of people, including six in serious condition. The Magen David Adom emergency service said that a man, 80, and two women, both in their 70s, were among six people seriously hurt. Two people were moderately injured, and at least 42 others suffered light injuries from shock waves and shrapnel at the various impact sites. In addition, 18 people were lightly injured as they scrambled to bomb shelters when sirens went off. Even in this brutal attack we see God’s protective presence at work as well. The floor of the hospital that was hit today is a surgical unit that had been evacuated yesterday because of its vulnerability to rocket strikes. Praise God, this spared the lives of those in the hospital … a true miracle. “You are the God who performs miracles; you display your power among the peoples” (Psalm 77:14).
