STORY: :: Smoke rises from Israel's Haifa oil refinery after a missile attack
:: March 30, 2026
It was not immediately clear whether the missile was fired from Iran or Iran-backed Hezbollah militants in Lebanon, who were both firing at the same time.
The fire service said a direct hit was identified on a gasoline storage tank within the factory grounds, causing thick smoke from the roof of a nearby structure.
Oil Refineries, near the main base of Israel's navy, and also known as Bazan, suffered some damage from an Iranian missile strike on March 20.
During a previous conflict last June, Bazan's refinery facilities were shut down after a power station used to produce steam and electricity was significantly damaged in an attack by Iran.
