"3rd Time Since 2/28 Iran Missile Shrapnel Lands Near Temple Mount In Jerusalem"


"Iran on Friday sent what Israel’s Foreign Ministry mockingly called an “Eid al-Fitr gift” — on the Muslim holiday marking the end of Ramadan — toward one of the most combustible places on earth, with dramatic footage capturing the moment fragments from an intercepted ballistic missile crashed into Jerusalem’s Old City near the Temple Mount and Western Wall in an area sacred to Jews, Muslims, and Christians alike".
"Friday’s impact near the Old City was the third such incident of the war involving Iranian missile fire near Jerusalem’s holiest and most sensitive sites."Earlier this week, on Monday, an Iranian missile exploded over Jerusalem, scattering debris across the Old City near the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, the Armenian Patriarchate, the Jewish Quarter, the Western Wall, and the Temple Mount near Al-Aqsa Mosque."
"At the outset of the conflict, police said the warhead of an Iranian missile fell just several hundred meters from the Western Wall and the Temple Mount after landing near Sultan’s Pool, just outside the Old City, on February 28. Police commander Dvir Tamir warned at the time that “if that warhead had deviated by a few hundred meters, it is very possible that a very serious hit would have occurred,” particularly had one of the holy places been struck while “full of worshipers and visitors.” FULL STORY at above link.

"Iran fired nine salvos of ballistic missiles at Israel from early Friday morning into the night, at least three of which appeared to carry cluster bomb warheads, damaging houses and lightly wounding some residents, as Israel named several Iranian officials it killed in recent days."

"Fragments from one intercepted missile impacted in Jerusalem’s Old City, causing damage to a parking lot in the Jewish Quarter — around 400 meters from the Western Wall and Al-Aqsa Mosque compound on the Temple Mount." (400 meters is .24854848 miles) FULL STORY at above link.

"Fragments from an Iranian ballistic missile rained down across Jerusalem’s Old City on Monday, landing within meters of some of the most revered holy sites in the world. Police confirmed debris in the Temple Mount compound, near Al-Masjid al-Aqsa and the Dome of the Rock (Qubbat al-Sakhra), as well as near the Church of the Holy Sepulchre and in the Jewish Quarter. The strike, part of a broader Iranian barrage, exposed the vulnerability of sacred sites to weapons designed not for precision but for maximum civilian harm." FULL STORY at above link.
