Iran launched a missile attack on Israel Tuesday. Sirens sounded across the country as teams on the ground saw dozens of missiles over the cities of Tel Aviv, Jerusalem and Haifa.
An Israeli air base was hit by the Iranian attack, new videos show, while the IDF says it conducted a “large number of interceptions.”
Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said the attack focused on Israeli security and military targets and was in response to the killing of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah and others.
The Israeli military — which initially estimated about 180 missiles were fired at Israel — said the attack “will have consequences.”
Earlier, the US said it believed Iran was preparing an imminent ballistic missile attack against Israel, following Israel’s launch of a ground operation in southern Lebanon targeting Iran-backed Hezbollah. Israeli officials described the ground offensive in Lebanon as “localized raids.”
