Meanwhile, The Jerusalem Post writes that Iran fired approximately 500 missiles into Israel.

There is currently no official information about victims and victims. The Magen David Adom medical service claims that an Iranian missile hit a building in Tel Aviv.

• In April 2024, Iran had already fired at Israel — it was the first such attack in history. In general, several hundred rockets and drones were launched at that time, almost all of these air forces were intercepted by Israeli air defense and allies. Iran claimed that the April attack was revenge for the attack on the Iranian consulate in Damascus. Then two Iranian generals and five officers were killed.
