Around two thousand people in Israel have been hospitalized since the start of the war with Iran, according to the country’s health ministry. In the past 24 hours alone, 157 new patients were admitted. Among those hospitalized, nine are in critical condition, 42 sustained moderate injuries, and 70 have minor wounds.

The conflict began on February 28 when the United States and Israel launched attacks on Iran. In response, Iran has carried out strikes on American facilities in Israel and Gulf countries. Israeli authorities reported that they are attempting to intercept missiles fired from Iran.

The Israeli military stated on Sunday that it had recently detected missiles launched from Tehran and that its defense systems are actively working to counter the threat.
