Israel’s emergency medical service has said an 11-year-old girl was in serious condition after a missile attack that the military blamed on Iran and police said caused damage at several sites, AFP reports.

The military said it had “identified missiles launched from Iran towards the territory of the State of Israel” for the first time in about 20 hours, with air raid sirens activated across central Israel.

The Magen David Adom emergency medical service said an 11-year-old girl was seriously wounded by shrapnel in central Israel as a result of the first launch.

Spokesman Zaki Heller told Israeli TV that at least 12 others were also wounded, including a 13-year-old boy and a 33-year-old woman in moderate condition, all from the same impact site.
