Video: Iranian missile hits former Israeli Minister's home in direct strike
ALBAWABA - On the seventh day of the conflict between Iran and Israel, an Iranian rocket hit the home of former Environment Minister Dani Naveh, who is a member of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's Likud Party. This was a dramatic increase in the tensions. Also Read Israel's Soroka hospital hit in latest Iranian missile barrage
Iran's most recent round of missile attacks, which began early Thursday morning, hit several major Israeli towns directly, including Tel Aviv, Ramat Gan, Holon, and Be'er Sheva. The attacks caused a lot of damage. Explosions shook cities, destroying buildings and hurting many people.
One of the places that was damaged directly was the Soroka Medical Center in Be'er Sheva. The hospital had to close because so many areas were damaged so badly. Israeli Army Radio said that at least one person was seriously hurt and another was hurt moderately in Holon. In Ramat Gan, about 15 people were hurt. Damage was also done to the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange building in Ramat Gan.
But Iranian sources said that reports that the hospital was the main target were not true. Iranian media say the missile attack was directed at a nearby center for military intelligence. It was meant to hit the IDF C4I command center and the Military Intelligence Base in the Gav-Yam Negev technology park, which is home to advanced cyber warfare systems and cyber operations infrastructure. They said the hospital was nothing more than a victim of the blast wave.
Just hours before the Iranian rocket attack, Israeli planes attacked the site of the IR-40 nuclear reactor near Arak. Before Iran's reaction, the Israeli military sent out a Persian-language evacuation notice telling people to leave the area around the reactor.
As the second week of the conflict goes on, both sides seem to be expanding their strategic goals. This makes people worry that the fighting will get worse in both military and civilian areas.

Oil falls as investors weigh chance of US intervention in Iran-Israel conflict
Ammon News - Oil prices fell on Thursday with investors hesitating to take new positions after President Donald Trump gave mixed signals on potential U.S. involvement in the Israel-Iran conflict, while the Federal Reserve left interest rates unchanged. Brent crude futures fell 20 cents, or 0.26%, to $76.5 a barrel by 0421 GMT, after gaining 0.3% in the previous session when high volatility saw prices fall as much as 2.7%. U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude for July fell 4 cents, or 0.05% to $75.10 a barrel, after settling up 0.4% in the previous when it dropped as much as 2.4%. The July contract expires on Friday and the more active August contract was down 8 cents, or 0.11%, to $73.42 a barrel. Iran is the third-largest producer among members of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries, extracting about 3.3 million barrels per day (bpd) of crude oil. About 19 million bpd of oil and oil products move through the Strait of Hormuz along Iran's southern coast and there is widespread concern the fighting could disrupt trade flows.
