Four relatives were killed in Israel after an Iranian missile hit a residential building Sunday night \u2014 an incident that could have killed more people if the bomb did not \u201cfail to go off,\u201d officials said.<\/p>\n

The IDF partially intercepted the missile on route to an oil refinery in the northern city of Haifa late on Sunday.<\/p>\n

The missile\u2019s warhead, however, survived and slammed into the building, the New York Times<\/em> reported.<\/p>\n

The impact caused parts of the building to collapse, and an 18-hour search mission for survivors began. During the search, an 82-year-old man who was seriously wounded was rescued by first responders, along with a 10-month old baby who was \u201clightly wounded.\u201d<\/p>\n

First responders quickly removed concrete blocks and debris with their bare hands, the director for the Magen David Adom ambulance service, Erez Geller said.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cPart of the building remained intact, and part had collapsed into a hollow,\u201d Geller told the Times. \u201cIt looked like there had been an earthquake.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The four killed victims were identified as Dima Gershovitz, 42, his wife, Lucille Jane, 35, his father, Vladimir Gershovitz, 73, and his mother, Lena Gershovitz, 70, according to Israeli media sources.<\/p>\n

The four were reportedly on their way back home from a Haifa hospital just hours before the missile hit the building, Ynet <\/em>reported. The family did not have time to enter the building\u2019s shelter before the missile strike. <\/p>\n

The Home Front Command said the relatives were found at the bottom of the building, near the stairwell. President Isaac Herzog later offered his condolences to the Gershovitz family on X while thanking first responders.<\/p>\n
