Israel’s military reported on Saturday that a missile was launched from Yemen toward Israel, marking the first such attack since Israel and the United States began joint strikes against Iran. The army said its air defense systems were active to intercept the missile. The statement did not specify the extent of damage or casualties.

The report came as Iran and Hezbollah continued a series of attacks on Israel from Friday night into early Saturday. Sirens were heard for the third time around Beersheba and near Israel’s main nuclear research center. The Iran-backed Houthi group, which has controlled Yemen’s capital Sanaa since 2014, has not claimed responsibility for the launch and had not previously taken direct part in the current conflict.

The development signals a possible widening of the regional conflict, though the source did not indicate any immediate escalation beyond the reported missile launch.

An Iranian missile attack on Israel on Friday killed one person and injured several others, according to Israeli emergency services. The Magen David Adom (MDA) reported that the latest strike hit Tel Aviv, killing one man and injuring two others aged 65 and 50. In southern Israel’s Kuseife, two more people aged 37 and 21 were wounded by shrapnel. Air raid sirens sounded in Jerusalem following the attack, and emergency teams were deployed across central Israel.

The Israeli military confirmed that missiles were launched from Iran and said defense systems were activated to counter the threat. A military officer reported that a residential apartment was struck by cluster munitions, a type of weapon that disperses smaller explosives over a wide area. Both Iran and Israel have previously accused each other of using such weapons. Witnesses and AFP correspondents reported explosions heard from Jericho in the occupied West Bank and sirens in Jerusalem.

Iran’s foreign minister Abbas Araghchi earlier warned that Israel would pay a “heavy price” after attacks on two major Iranian steel plants and a nuclear facility.

The war in Iran, launched by the United States and Israel on February 28, marked its first month on Saturday, March 28, 2026. Thousands have been killed across the Middle East, with widespread destruction leaving many families homeless. At a United Nations press conference on Friday, Maria Martinez, head of the Iranian Red Crescent delegation, said medical teams were still rescuing survivors from collapsed buildings, with some workers finding their own relatives among the dead.

The conflict has expanded beyond Iran into neighboring Gulf areas. Since February 28, at least 1,900 people have been killed in Iran. In Lebanon, Israeli attacks since March 2 have killed 1,142 people, including 122 children, and injured 3,315 others. Iraq has reported 96 deaths, including 13 in the Kurdistan region. Four Palestinians were killed in the Israeli-occupied West Bank by Iranian missile strikes.

The U.S. Central Command confirmed the deaths of 13 American soldiers since the war began. Israel reported 19 civilian deaths within its territory and four soldiers killed in southern Lebanon.

U.S. President Donald Trump stated that the war with Iran is not yet over, announcing that 3,554 Iranian targets remain to be struck. He said the remaining attacks would be carried out quickly and claimed that Iran, once a strong nation, is no longer powerful. Trump added that Iran has never experienced anything like the current situation.

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said the United States can achieve its objectives without deploying ground troops and suggested that the conflict could end within weeks. The remarks were reported by CNN and come amid ongoing military operations involving U.S. strikes on Iranian targets.

The statements highlight Washington’s continued offensive posture toward Iran and suggest that further military actions are imminent as the U.S. seeks to conclude its campaign.

The United States and Israel launched attacks on two of Iran’s largest steel factories, Khuzestan and Mobarakeh, amid ongoing regional tensions. Iran’s semi-official Fars News Agency reported the strikes on Friday, while emergency units were deployed to the sites. According to provincial governor Mehdi Jamalinejad, one person was killed and 15 others injured in the Esfahan attack.

Israel also targeted key infrastructure, including a power plant and civilian nuclear facilities. Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi condemned the actions, calling them a violation of the diplomatic timeline set by the United States and warning that Tehran would exact a “heavy price” for Israel’s actions. The attacks follow a joint US-Israeli strike on Iran on February 28 that killed more than 1,340 people, including then-Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei.

In retaliation, Tehran has launched drone and missile strikes on US military bases in Israel, Jordan, Iraq, and Gulf countries, causing casualties and infrastructure damage, further intensifying the regional conflict.

One month after the joint US and Israeli assault on Iran began on February 28, 2026, the country continues to fight back despite widespread destruction and the killing of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei on the first day of the war. Tehran has launched repeated counterattacks on Israeli targets and US bases across the Middle East, while maintaining control over the strategically vital Strait of Hormuz. According to reports, thousands have been killed, including 1,937 in Iran and 1,116 in Lebanon, with tens of thousands injured.

Iran’s Red Crescent reported over 92,000 civilian structures damaged, including homes, schools, and health centers. The education ministry confirmed 250 teachers and students killed and more than 700 educational institutions damaged. Analysts, including former MI6 chief Alex Younger, said Iran holds a strategic advantage due to its dispersed military capacity and resilience. The US has suffered at least $800 million in base damages and plans to deploy 10,000 additional troops.

President Donald Trump announced a 10-day suspension of strikes on Iranian energy facilities until April 6, citing ongoing talks. However, Iran rejected US proposals as one-sided, while Germany accused Russia of aiding Iran in identifying targets.

At least ten US soldiers were injured and several aircraft damaged when Iran launched a missile and drone attack on the Prince Sultan Air Base in Saudi Arabia, according to two unnamed US officials. Among the injured, two are reported to be in critical condition. The officials said multiple US refueling planes were affected in the strike.

The attack came a day after President Donald Trump declared that Iran had been “completely destroyed,” while Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth claimed no nation’s military power had ever been neutralized so quickly and effectively. The US Central Command (CENTCOM) reported that over the past month of conflict, more than 300 American troops have been injured, most of whom have returned to duty, though 30 remain unfit for service and 10 are in serious condition.

The incident underscores the continuing volatility in the region despite earlier US claims of neutralizing Iran’s military capacity.

Iran’s Atomic Energy Organization reported that a missile struck near the Bushehr nuclear power plant, marking the third such attack by U.S. and Israeli forces in the past ten days, according to Tasnim News Agency. The organization stated that there were no casualties or technical or financial damages from the incident.

Iran condemned the attack, calling it a clear violation of international law and treaties, and warned that targeting peaceful nuclear facilities could pose a serious threat to regional security. The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) confirmed that, based on Iran’s information, the reactor remained undamaged and no radiation had leaked, with the plant operating normally.

IAEA Director General Rafael Mariano Grossi expressed deep concern, warning that continued military activity near nuclear sites could lead to a major radiological accident. He reiterated his call for maximum military restraint to prevent such risks.

Iran carried out a retaliatory attack following Israeli strikes on its nuclear and power facilities, according to reports on March 28, 2026. The assault caused widespread damage in several areas, including Tel Aviv, where one person was confirmed dead. Israel’s Broadcasting Authority reported that debris from Iranian rockets fell in at least 11 locations across the greater Tel Aviv area. Israel’s Home Front Command said emergency teams were deployed for rescue and relief operations.

Israel’s Channel 14 confirmed that one person was killed in Tel Aviv, while the Magen David Adom ambulance service stated on social media that a man around 60 years old was pronounced dead at the scene. Two others were injured in central Israel. Air raid sirens were activated across multiple regions, including the Negev Desert, Dimona, Beersheba, Arad, and Ashkelon.

The Iranian strike followed Israel’s earlier attacks on two nuclear facilities and two major steel plants in Iran, after which Tehran had vowed a “harsh response.”

On the 28th day of joint US-Israeli attacks on Iran, two power plants and a production complex in Isfahan province were heavily bombed, resulting in the deaths of at least 25 workers, according to provincial governor Mehdi Jamalzadeh, as reported by Al Jazeera. The strikes targeted facilities in Mobarakeh County, including two power plants with capacities of 914 and 250 megawatts, which were completely destroyed.

Iran’s state news agency IRNA confirmed that parts of the Mobarakeh steel production plant were also damaged. Rescue and relief teams have been deployed to clear debris and assist in recovery operations in the affected areas.

The attack marks a continuation of the ongoing US-Israeli military campaign in Iran, which has also included recent strikes on the Bushehr nuclear facility and other industrial sites, according to the same report.

Yemen’s Houthi movement has warned that it could engage in direct military intervention if specific conditions arise. Spokesperson Yahya Sari stated that their 'finger is on the trigger' for direct military involvement, according to a statement cited by Al Jazeera. He outlined five points urging the United States and Israel to respond to international diplomatic efforts to halt wars against countries within the so-called 'axis of resistance,' including Iran and Lebanon.

Sari described the ongoing aggression as unjust, oppressive, and irrational, claiming it harms global and regional stability and the economy. He called for an end to attacks on Palestine, Lebanon, Iraq, and Iran, as well as the lifting of what he termed an unjust blockade on Yemen. He also demanded a ceasefire in Gaza and the assurance of humanitarian aid.

The spokesperson further warned that any new measures tightening the blockade on Yemen would provoke a direct response, signaling heightened risks of escalation in the region.

Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has strongly condemned Israeli attacks on the country’s nuclear facilities, warning that Israel will have to pay a “heavy price” for what he called crimes. He made the remarks on Friday in a post on social media platform X, following reports of multiple Israeli strikes.

According to CNN, Israeli forces carried out attacks on several Iranian nuclear sites, including a uranium production center and a heavy-water reactor. Iran’s state broadcaster IRIB also reported strikes on two steel plants in Isfahan. Araghchi said Israel claimed to have coordinated the attacks with the United States, though he argued that the move conflicted with the timeline extended by former U.S. President Donald Trump regarding Iran. He vowed that Iran would deliver a firm response.

The attacks occurred as Trump stated that if Iran reopened the Strait of Hormuz, the U.S. might delay planned strikes on Iranian energy facilities. The strait, a vital waterway between Iran and Oman, has seen limited shipping since U.S. and Israeli military operations began on February 28.

At least 13 people, including women and children, were killed in airstrikes by the United States and Israel on residential areas of Iran’s Kermanshah province, according to a report by Iran’s Mehr News Agency cited by Al Jazeera. The report said the dead included two children, four women, and one pregnant woman. Several others were also injured in the attacks.

In a separate incident, two people were killed and two others injured in a strike on a cement factory in Firozabad city, as reported by Iran’s semi-official ISNA News Agency. The attacks occurred on the 28th day of ongoing US-Israeli operations in Iran.

Iran has accused the United States and Israel of violating the laws of war by targeting civilian buildings with drones and missiles, according to the report.

Israel’s military has confirmed conducting an airstrike on a uranium extraction facility located in Yazd, central Iran, according to a report by Al Jazeera. In a statement posted on Telegram, the Israeli army said the attack targeted key infrastructure used in the uranium enrichment process.

Uranium enrichment is considered a critical step in the development of nuclear weapons, and the issue has long been a source of tension among Iran, the United States, and Israel. The strike marks another escalation in the ongoing confrontation over Iran’s nuclear activities.

Iran’s Atomic Energy Organization stated that no radioactive material was released as a result of the attack and that there was no harmful impact on the environment.

Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has urged employees of United States and Israel-supported industrial firms to vacate their workplaces immediately. According to Tasnim News Agency, the warning followed attacks on heavy water production centers and yellowcake (uranium raw material) facilities. The IRGC stated that its fighters are currently conducting counterattacks on industrial sites with US involvement and those closely tied to Israel.

The organization further cautioned that workers at the affected facilities should leave the area without delay. It also instructed civilians living within a one-kilometer radius of the targeted sites to move to safer locations. The alert comes amid reports of repeated attacks on Iran’s nuclear and industrial infrastructure, including incidents at the Bushehr nuclear plant and missile strikes that caused fires in industrial zones in the United Arab Emirates.

The IRGC’s warning signals heightened regional tensions and potential escalation involving industrial and nuclear-related sites across the Middle East.
