Iran launched a barrage of missiles and drones on Israel Sunday morning, marking a dramatic escalation just hours after the United States conducted overnight air and missile strikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities in Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan.
According to the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), Iran fired multiple ballistic missiles in what is being described as its first direct missile assault on Israel in the current conflict. Additionally, two Iranian drones were intercepted and shot down by the Israeli Air Force earlier in the day. The IDF claims these drones were launched even before the U.S. strikes occurred.
The air raids have triggered widespread panic across Israel.
