[Regnum] Iran's armed forces launched a missile attack on Israel's largest thermal power plant, Orot Rabin, the Tabnak news agency reported on March 26.

"An Iranian missile hit a key Israeli power plant," reads a message on the Telegram channel.

The power plant is located near the city of Hadera on the Mediterranean coast.

The published footage shows a huge plume of smoke rising in the immediate vicinity of the plant. However, no direct missile hit on the power plant's facilities was recorded. Nevertheless, Israel is raising concerns about potential risks to the energy sector.

The Orot Rabin power plant is a key component of Israel's national grid, providing approximately 20-25% of the country's total electricity generation. Its failure threatens widespread power outages, particularly in central Israel, including Tel Aviv.



Iran appears to target Israeli power plant in missile attack, but misses
[IsraelTimes] An Iranian ballistic missile struck an open area in northern Israel on Wednesday in an attack appearing to target Israel’s largest power plant and the Israeli Air Force kept up its strikes on regime targets across Iran, even as diplomats worked in the background to end the nearly four-week war.The attack was the fourth round of missile fire from Iran

at Israel since midnight, triggering sirens across central Israel and parts of the north.

Some of the missiles fired in the attack were likely intercepted by air defenses, according to the initial military assessments. Rescue forces responded to reports of missile fragments in several areas following the interceptions.

One of the missiles fell in an open area near Hadera, without causing any injuries. Shortly after, the Israel Electric Corporation said no damage was caused to its infrastructure in the attack.

Israel’s largest power plant, the Orot Rabin power station, is located in Hadera.

Iran has previously threatened to strike power and energy plants in Israel and across the Gulf, and last week forced the closure of the Bazan oil refinery in Haifa for several days due to damage caused by missile fragments.

State media, including the judiciary’s Mizan Online website, on Monday showed infographics of potential targets in Israel, including Orot Rabin and Rutenberg, Israel’s second-largest power plant.

Seven additional rounds of missile fire had targeted Israel by Wednesday afternoon, setting off sirens from the north to Eilat in the south. One ballistic missile salvo targeting Dimona, in southern Israel, coincided with Hezbollah rocket fire from Leb
