Iran has launched its first salvo of ballistic missiles at Israel after the US military conducted airstrikes at three key Iranian nuclear facilities in the early hours of Sunday, marking a dramatic escalation in the West Asian conflict.
Iran’s state media said more than 30 ballistic missiles had been fired as sirens rang across parts of Israel, while explosions were heard in Jerusalem. The Israeli Army said it was working to intercept missiles from Iran. Israel had closed its airspace after the US strikes on Iran.
Civilians have been asked to remain in bomb shelters until further notice, as security forces responded to reports of ballistic missile impacts in central and northern Israel. This came shortly after Iran’s top diplomat warned of “everlasting consequences" to the US attacks.
