For the second time in less than a year, an Iranian missile has damaged the home of David Zuaretz in the central Israeli city of Petah Tikva, a strike the homeowner says could have been deadly if his family had not taken shelter.

“This is the second time already,” Zuaretz told The Press Service of Israel, standing outside his damaged house. “Four months ago, we finished renovating the house from the previous missile. A whole year of work, and now another missile hits our house.”

The house was previously damaged during an Iranian barrage in June 2025.
