Israel-Hezbollah War Live Updates: In a major escalation in the raging conflict in the Middle East, Iran launched a missile attack on Israel on Tuesday. The IDF said in a statement that all Israeli civilians are in bomb shelters as rockets from Iran are fired at Israel. The IDF further said that Hezbollah is upset that the IDF exposed their plans to massacre Israelis, so they decided to target innocent civilians by firing a barrage of rockets.
According to the Jerusalem Post, 102 missiles were launched towards Israel. The Times of Israel reported that sirens continue to sound across Israel amid the attack. Around 10 million civilians are the targets of Iranian projectiles, the IDF said.
Iran’s state media has also confirmed the Iranian attack towards Israel. Earlier, US President Joe Biden had said that he along with his deputy Kamala Harris convened a meeting with national security team to discuss Iranian plans for an ‘imminent’ attack.
“This morning, @VP and I convened our national security team to discuss Iranian plans to launch an imminent missile attack against Israel. We discussed how the United States is prepared to help Israel defend against these attacks, and protect American personnel in the region,” Biden stated on X.
The firing of missiles came after Israeli troops launched ground raids into Lebanon, in the biggest escalation of regional warfare since fighting erupted in Gaza a year ago.
