“Israeli authorities said they were containing a large fire at an oil refinery in Haifa after it was hit by debris from an intercepted missile.”
SINGLE SOURCE
The claim about debris from an intercepted missile causing the fire is only directly supported by one web search result mentioning debris causing a fire at the refinery. The third source mentions the fire but does not specify the cause. The first source is unrelated.

“The incident comes after weeks of US–Israeli attacks on Iran’s energy infrastructure, raising fears that critical facilities are becoming targets.”
CORROBORATED
Two web search results independently confirm the claim: one states Israel escalated attacks on Iran's energy infrastructure after warnings, and another mentions US-Israeli joint strikes on Iran. These align with the claim's timeline and context.
