A wave of Iranian missiles disrupted the electricity supply to “several communities” in southern Israel on Monday, according to Israel’s electricity company.
It came after strikes hit “adjacent to a strategic infrastructure facility,” the Israel Electric Company said in a statement.
Israel’s energy minister said that 8,000 houses do not have power currently, but it is expected to be restored within three hours.
The electric company said that teams are heading to the area to repair infrastructure and remove hazards, working in coordination with security forces.
