US Embassy Hit By Iranian Missile Strike In Tel Aviv

An Iranian missile hit the US embassy in Tel Aviv, with no injuries. This occurred during Iran’s retaliatory strikes on Israel on June 16, 2025, following Israeli attacks on Iranian nuclear sites. US and allies condemn it as a violation of sovereignty. The situation risks escalation.

Another genius move from the murdering Mullahs.

US is planning a “limited retaliatory action” for today’s attack on it’s consulate in Israel.

US Embassy Damaged By Iranian Missile Strike In Tel Aviv

By: Newsweek, Jun 16, 2025:

The U.S. Embassy in Tel Aviv has sustained “minor damage” after an Iranian missile landed close to the building in the early hours of Monday, said the U.S. ambassador to Israel.

Israel and Iran exchanged strikes for a fourth day into Monday after Israel launched its “preemptive” strikes on Iran’s nuclear, missile and military sites late on Thursday U.S. time.

An Iranian official said 78 people were killed and more than 300 injured in Tehran as Israel declared a state of emergency and prepared for Iran’s response.

Tehran has carried out several waves of retaliatory drone and missile strikes across Israel, as the Israeli military continues to target sites across Iran.

U.S. President Donald Trump has called for both sides to “make a deal,” but told reporters in separate remarks that “sometimes they have to fight it out.”

Israel’s defense minister, Israel Katz, said on Monday that “the residents of Tehran will pay the price, and soon,” after renewed Iranian ballistic missile strikes across Israel.

Ambassador Mike Huckabee wrote on X, formerly Twitter, that no U.S. personnel were injured in the incident, but added that U.S. Embassy office and consulate would remain closed on Monday.

President Donald Trump, during his first term in office, opened the U.S. Embassy in Jerusalem and recognized the fiercely contested and divided city as the Israeli capital. The Tel Aviv branch has remained operational.

The U.S. State Department on Saturday said family members and selected nonemergency U.S. government personnel could leave the country, with all others sheltering until further notice. The Jerusalem and Tel Aviv offices would remain open, the State Department said at the time.

The U.S. pulled some of its staff from the wider Middle East, including the embassy in Iraq, ahead of Israel’s initial strikes late last week.

Israeli authorities reported early on Monday that Iranian weapons had fallen close to the coastal area around Tel Aviv, causing damage to property and infrastructure.

Four people were killed in central Israel, the country’s Magen David Adom emergency services said on Monday. Another 87 people were injured.

Israeli officials said 23 people had been killed since Friday, including four people in the Petah Tivka area east of Tel Aviv in the early hours of Monday.

Three more were killed in the northern Israeli coastal city of Haifa, authorities said, and another person died in Bnei Brak, between Tel Aviv and Petah Tivka.

Two more bodies were found in the city of Bat Yam, south of Tel Aviv early on Monday, officials said. Bat Yam was hit by an Iranian ballistic missile overnight into Sunday.

Iranian state media reported on Monday Tehran launched “hundreds of missiles” toward “strategic and sensitive targets” in Tel Aviv and Haifa, starting at just before 5 a.m. local time.

The Iranian military targeted the Haifa power plant, according to state media. Footage widely circulated online on Monday appears to show several explosions and fires in Haifa.

Iranian foreign ministry spokesperson, Esmaeil Baqaei, said late on Sunday local time that 73 women and children had been killed in “just three recent strikes” on the Iranian capital.

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said on Monday it had struck Iranian military command centers overnight across Tehran after carrying out “wide-scale” attacks on several Iranian weapons sites in the country’s capital on Sunday.

Iranian state media confirmed late on Sunday the death of Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps intelligence chief Brigadier General Mohammad Kazemi, Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps. Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, had said told Fox News the IDF had struck Kazemi and his second in command in Tehran.
