ALBAWABA - Two days after the Iranian attack on Israel during which over 300 drones were launched, videos and photos of weird or shocking events continue to flood online.

The latest shocking video was from a concert in Lebanon where the audience continued to party while Iranian missiles were passing above in the sky.

According to some online users, the Lebanese concert audience mistook the Iranian missiles for fireworks and thought they were part of the event so they continued to celebrate. 

A clip posted on X (formerly Twitter) shows people dancing at a concert in Lebanon while "scary" Iranian missiles were passing above their heads.

Another video caught the attention of many on social media showing an Israeli man trying to record the Iranian missiles when out of a sudden, one fell next to him leading to his injury.

Iran announced a drone attack on Israel on April, 13 in retaliation for a deadly strike on Iran's Damascus consulate during which seven IRGC members were killed, including two generals.

Iran launched over 300 drones and missiles towards Israel, injuring at least 12 people, an Israeli army spokesperson Daniel Hagari said on Sunday.
