Iranian Strike on Tel Aviv Makes Rare Use of 220 Pound Warhead -- WSJ

Dow Jones03-24 23:00

By Dov Lieber

An Iranian missile with a 220 pound warhead struck Tel Aviv on Tuesday morning, according to an Israeli police assessment, a rare occurrence that indicates Tehran is using a new type of munition against Israel.

The missile struck a street in a residential neighborhood, inflicting heavy damage on nearby apartment buildings and vehicles, according to videos released by Israel's police. Israeli paramedics said four people were mildly injured by the strike.

The size of the warhead that struck Tel Aviv on Tuesday is around half the size of previous unitary warheads fired by Iran at Israel, but still much larger than the cluster munitions Tehran has regularly fired at the coastal city during the current conflict.

Regular ballistic missiles fired by Iran at Israel have had around 520 pound warheads while missiles carrying cluster munitions have released dozens of bomblets at a time carrying between seven to 26 pounds of explosives, according to an Israeli security official.
