There was another attack earlier outside of Jerusalem.

At least nine people were killed, including six members of the same family.

When first responders arrived, they were digging through the rubble.

Most of the country waited in bomb shelters.

There are air raid sirens that are sounding in northern Israel in the city of Haifa.

This entire block completely destroyed by an Iranian ballistic missile.

First responders are digging through the rubble.
