Unfortunately they're really cracking down on these clips, but this one managed to get released today.
Rumors are that explosion was caused by their "Sejjil" missile, which are the biggest known model of missile Iran currently has, and which Israel has no defense against.

I've also heard that almost all of the missiles Iran has fired thus far have been their older ones. They just started firing their more advanced ones, which go sub orbital and leave a trail in the sky a lot like a SpaceX launch. I think that was the "big surprise" Iranian leadership was alluding to yesterday. Iran has actually been holding back, and like you said, Israel has been clamping down hard to censor all negative media coverage of Iranian rockets hitting Israel, including private phone footage.
They're surrounded by a sea of their enemies, most of whom they created by their own actions. If the people surrounding Israel wanted to, they could wipe Israel off the map with impunity. This is the one area where Israel needs to project strength no matter what. They'll absolutely kvetch about victimhood through their normal outlets, only as a means to procure more U.S. aid and military involvement.
