WANA (Jun 20) – In the first official statement following Iran’s missile strike on southern Israel this morning, the spokesperson for the “True Promise 3” operation declared:

 

“With just one missile, Microsoft in Be’er Sheva was destroyed. Complicity with the regime comes at a price. You will be punished—harshly and painfully. Expect us.”

 

This statement came after an Iranian missile directly hit a sensitive area in the city of Be’er Sheva—an area reportedly housing the Microsoft building along with data centers and Israeli military cyber operations, according to Hebrew sources.

Strategic Target: Israel’s Cyber Hub

Field reports and confirmation from local sources indicate that the Iranian missile struck a building used by Microsoft, a company directly involved in joint projects with the Israeli military on artificial intelligence, missile tracking, and cyber warfare.

 

Hebrew media also reported that several loud explosions were heard in southern Israel, and shortly afterward, the Be’er Sheva train station was shut down due to damage.

At Least 18 Injured, Dozens in Shock

Israel’s emergency services confirmed at least 18 injuries and over 30 cases of acute stress reactions following the missile impact. Images from the scene show extensive destruction and severe damage to urban infrastructure.

 

The mayor of Be’er Sheva, speaking to Israel’s Channel 12, confirmed that the missile “struck directly, and no interception attempt was made.”
