On Tuesday, Iran launched missiles at Israel, triggering alarms across the country as civilians hurried to find shelter. The Iranian government stated that this attack was in retaliation for the deaths of a Guards commander and other leaders.
The Israeli military later declared an all-clear, allowing residents to exit their shelters, but warned of impending retaliation against Iran “at a place and time of our choosing.”
In response, Iran’s Revolutionary Guards threatened “crushing attacks” if Israel retaliated for the missile strikes.
Earlier, the Israeli military had indicated that any ballistic missile strike from Iran would likely be extensive, advising the public to take refuge in secure rooms if an attack occurred.
This missile launch followed Israeli ground raids into Lebanon, marking the most significant escalation in regional conflict since the outbreak of fighting in Gaza a year ago.
