Iran launched missiles at Soroka Hospital in Beersheba and civilian areas in central Israel on Thursday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on social media. 

He vowed that Israel would "exact the full price" from the "tyrants" in Tehran.

Iran's state news agency IRNA denied reports that the strike targeted a hospital earlier in the day, saying it was aimed at the Israeli army's C4I telecommunications corps headquarters and an intelligence facility, adding that the hospital was affected by the blast's shockwave.
