Iranian missiles hit Tel Aviv [View all]

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/jun/13/israel-says-attack-on-iran-just-the-beginning

Iranian missiles have rained down on Tel Aviv in retaliation to Friday morning’s surprise aerial assault by Israel, as Tehran vowed to open the “gates of hell”.

Benjamin Netanyahu warned “more is on the way” and said Israel’s attempt to destroy Iran’s nuclear programme was just beginning.

Late on Friday, Iran and Israel reported a new wave of Iranian missile attacks, with explosions heard over Jerusalem. In northern Tehran, residents reported fresh explosions as Iran’s state news agency, IRNA, said Israel had launched further strikes.

An Israeli military spokesperson said earlier that Iran had fired up to 100 missiles in waves earlier in the evening, and that most had been intercepted or missed their intended target, but several appeared to penetrate Israel’s multi-tiered defences.
