RAMALLAH, June 17 (KUNA) -- The Israeli occupation's media reported that Iran launched a missile barrage, Monday, with rockets striking various areas including Haifa, Tel Aviv, and Herzliya.
Air raid sirens were activated across several places in occupied Palestine and were also heard in the West Bank.
