Haifa Mayor Yona Yahav confirms that three people in the city were killed in an Iranian missile attack overnight, APA reports citing The Times of Israel.
Yahav tells Channel 12 news the three were working at a facility “that’s very important to us in the area, which we would be happy if it closed and left.”
He expresses regret over the deaths, which bring the toll in overnight attacks to eight.
Rescuers had apparently attempted for hours to reach the three missing people, who were buried under rubble during the attack on the northern city Sunday night.
Yahav says several homes and other buildings on the city suffered extensive damage, but only four people were hospitalized with light injuries.
