Explosions were heard across Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, and the occupied West Bank after Iran launched hundreds of ballistic missiles at Israel in retaliation for an unprecedented Israeli strike on Iran's Natanz nuclear facility, which reportedly killed top Iranian commanders. Israel's military named its operation “Rising Lion.” While Iran claimed to have fired hundreds of missiles, Israel stated fewer than 100 were launched, most intercepted or falling short. The U.S. military assisted in intercepting incoming missiles. Buildings in Ramat Gan were damaged, with at least five injured in the Tel Aviv area. The attacks sparked fears of a wider regional conflict, though Iran’s allies, Hamas and Hezbollah, have already been weakened. Global leaders, including the UN and EU, urged restraint. Turkish, Malaysian, and Pakistani leaders condemned Israel’s actions, calling them provocative. The escalation has heightened tensions around Iran’s nuclear ambitions and raised alarm over broader regional instability.
