Video footage taken from a CCTV camera showed a large metal tube falling out of the sky and landing on a man walking across a street, apparently killing him instantly.

A 38-year-old Gazan, the only known fatality in Iran's missile attack against Israel, was buried on Wednesday, witnesses said.

Sameh Khadr Hassan Al-Asali had been staying in a Palestinian security forces compound in the West Bank when he was killed by falling missile debris during Tuesday's attack, which Israel said was largely thwarted by its air defense systems.
