Israel launched strikes on military targets in Iran early Saturday, citing a response to a recent missile attack from Tehran.
The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) stated it met its objectives and warned Iran against retaliation.
Iranian state media reported several hours of explosions across Tehran, Khuzestan, and Ilam provinces, with Iran’s military claiming that air defenses intercepted some attacks, resulting in limited damage.
This escalation occurs amidst heightened Israel-Iran tensions, especially following Hamas’s October 7 attack on Israel, supported by Iran-backed Hezbollah.
Regional and global concerns are mounting as Israel continues military operations against Hezbollah and in Gaza.
