An Iranian missile reportedly struck near Jerusalem's revered Al-Aqsa Mosque on Eid-ul-Fitr, Israel claimed on Saturday, sharing a video that purportedly shows the projectile landing and exploding just a few hundred metres from the holy sites.
According to Israeli authorities, the missile landed close to the Old City, which houses sites sacred to Muslims, Christians and Jews, including the Western Wall and the Church of the Holy Sepulchre.
Israeli authorities have shut access to major religious sites in the Old City, citing security concerns during the conflict.
Israeli police said one person sustained minor injuries and was evacuated.
The incident comes amid escalating hostilities, with Iran launching missile barrages at Israel in response to a military campaign by Israel and the United States that began on February 28.
