Iran launched missile strikes on Israeli oil refineries in the northern city of Haifa, but the Ministry of Energy reported on Thursday that the attacks did not cause “significant damage,” according to The Guardian.
Israeli Energy Minister Eli Cohen said that electricity was interrupted for a short period.
“The damage to the northern electricity grid was localized and not significant. Similarly, in the northern attacks, there was no substantial damage to Israeli infrastructure,” Cohen told Reuters.
The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps stated that it targeted oil refineries in Haifa, Israel’s third-largest city, and in Ashdod, in the south of the country.
The Guard also reported that several military facilities were struck with precision missiles.
