Air raid sirens sounded across Israel on Friday as Iran launched a wave of missiles in retaliation for Israeli strikes that killed several top Iranian military officials and targeted nuclear facilities. Explosions were heard in Jerusalem and smoke was seen rising over Tel Aviv. Residents were ordered into bomb shelters, but no casualties were immediately reported.
The attack follows what appears to be Israel’s most significant operation against Iran in decades, aimed at crippling its nuclear program. The escalation has raised fears of a wider regional war, with both countries now engaged in direct military confrontation. Global leaders have called for restraint, but tensions continue to rise.
