Iranian Missiles Kill Arab Israeli Family, Spark Racist Celebrations in Tamra

An Iranian ballistic missile struck a two-story home in the Arab Israeli town of Tamra, resulting in the deaths of four members of a Christian Arab family, including a mother and her daughters. The missile attack came during a volley of missiles launched from Iran, some of which also hit other Israeli cities such as Bat Yam and Rehovot, causing additional casualties and injuries. The attack has sparked tension locally, as a video surfaced showing some Israelis in nearby Mitzpeh Aviv celebrating the missile strike with chants and clapping, prompting condemnation from the National Unity party, which emphasized solidarity with Arab citizens and called such behavior unacceptable. Residents of Tamra expressed sadness and a desire for coexistence, lamenting the surge of hatred revealed by the celebrations. Another video from Lebanon showed wedding guests surprised by missile fire overhead, highlighting the surreal and dangerous nature of the ongoing conflict. Despite the missile attacks, some Israelis seeking shelter have been seen maintaining their spirit through singing, dancing, and prayer.
