At least six people were wounded after fragments from a cluster munition struck central Israel on Thursday morning amid an intense wave of ballistic missile barrages launched from Iran.

Magen David Adom provided treatment to a woman in her 40s suffering from wounds to her upper body caused by shrapnel impact in the Tel Aviv area. She was rushed to Sourasky Medical Center's Ichilov Hospital with light injuries, MDA said.

Paramedics also provided treatment to a 26-year-old man who was also lightly injured by shrapnel in the Tel Aviv area.

Additionally, the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology's campus was hit by falling shrapnel, the university stated. The campus is located in the Haifa's Naveh Sha'anan area.

Sharing a video of the damage caused, the university noted that there were no casualties and that damage to university buildings was "limited."
