The news about a direct missile hit on a residential building in Haifa was first reported on Sunday at about 6:30 P.M. One person who had been severely injured was rescued but fears remained that others were trapped under the rubble. The prime minister almost certainly knew of this earlier than the public. That’s why he has a military secretary, who is updated by the police commissioner, the Home Front commander and the head of the National Fire and Rescue Authority.
