Iran hits Israel with retaliatory strikes after nuclear site attacks

Iranian missiles have targeted sites across Israel, killing at least three people and injuring dozens, in retaliation for ongoing Israeli attacks on Iran.

Iran says Israel has killed at least 78 people, including women and children, and wounded more than 320 others, as the Israeli military continues to launch strikes on cities, military sites and nuclear facilities.

Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei warned Israel that it “must expect severe punishment” following the “crime” of attacking Iran and killing several top-level military commanders and six nuclear scientists.

Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says the military operation will continue as long as necessary.

The United States has tried to distance itself from Israel’s onslaught while warning Iran against attacking American bases in the region.#IsraelIranConflict #IranIsraelConflict
