A ballistic missile directly hit a building in Dimona, wounding dozens of people including a boy with shrapnel injuries, after Iran said it would target Israel's nuclear program in response to the strike on Natanz. The IAEA said no abnormal radiation levels had been detected.
Why it matters
Iran framed the strike near Israel's main nuclear research center as retaliation for Natanz, turning nuclear sites on both sides into declared targets.
