Explosions were heard in the Iranian capital, Tehran, as Israel launched a preemptive strike. Israel is in a state of emergency, as Iran retaliated Friday night with a missile attack.

An Iranian missile strike Friday night hit cities across Israel, causing serious damage and dozens of injuries.

Fox News chief foreign correspondent Trey Yingst, reporting live from the scene, described a heavily damaged neighborhood near Israel’s military headquarters, the Kiryat.

He said emergency crews were rushing into buildings to search for people who might still be trapped. Glass covered the sidewalks, and some building floors were either flooded or destroyed.

“One floor was flooded and another completely exploded,” Yingst reported, after speaking with a woman named Noya who was in the building during the blast. She said the explosion was so powerful it shook the entire building, injuring people and leaving parts of it burned and flooded.

According to Magen David Adom (MDA), 34 people were injured in the strikes. A woman in her 60s was critically hurt. A man in his 60s was seriously injured. A man and a woman in their 50s were moderately wounded. Another 30 people had light injuries from the blast and falling debris. Thirteen more were treated for anxiety. All were taken to hospitals.

MDA also treated 13 people for anxiety.

MDA paramedic Harel Sasson said one woman, around 70 years old, was found under rubble in critical condition and was given CPR during evacuation. He also treated a man with shrapnel wounds to the face and a woman with moderate shrapnel injuries.

Other lightly injured people were also evacuated. Sasson said MDA teams are still on the scene assisting search efforts.

Simcha Simandayev, director of an MDA Station, said a man with head injuries, burns, and smoke inhalation was treated and taken to the hospital in moderate condition. Others with minor injuries were also treated and evacuated.

In a separate rocket impact site, Israeli police confirmed that one person was killed and 20 more were injured.
