Branch of US embassy in Tel Aviv damaged by Iran’s missile strikes

A branch of the U.S. embassy in Tel Aviv sustained minor damage after a missile fired by Iran hit the building, but no embassy staff were injured, U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee said in an X post.

Earlier, the Ynet portal reported that a missile had landed near the Tel Aviv branch of the U.S. embassy.

“Our Embassy in Israel and Consulate will officially remain closed today as shelter in place still in effect. Some minor damage from concussions of Iranian missile hits near Embassy Branch in Tel Aviv but no injuries to U.S. personnel,” the ambassador writes.
