Iran launched a massive missile attack on Israel, the warning sirens sounded in Jerusalem and Tel Aviv. While Iran claims to have sent hundreds of missiles, the Israeli army talks about dozens.
Iran launched a massive attack on Israel on Friday night. In Jerusalem and Tel Aviv, warning sirens sounded, Reuters and AFP reported, TASR writes.
While several dozen missiles are deployed in the attack by the Israeli army, Iran claims to have sent hundreds. This contradiction may be due to the fact that some of the missiles have not achieved a goal, the Times of Israel said.
The attack on Israel was also confirmed by Iranian revolutionary guard and informed the Iranian media. The Iranian attack began shortly after the television speech of the highest leader Ajatollah Ali Khamenei, in which he promised that “the Islamic Republic will win over the Zionist regime”.
Shortly before the attack, the Israeli army ordered the inhabitants of the whole of Israel to stay near anti -aircraft covers until further notice.
Call of Israelis for caution
At the same time, the army called on the Israelis not to disclose places or photographs from missile impacts. “The enemy monitors shots to improve its offensive abilities,” explained the army, which then warned the inhabitants of Israel against the second wave of Iranian attacks.
In the meantime, the Times of Israel reported smoke over Tel Aviv. It is not clear whether they were caused by Iranian missiles or the intervention of Israeli air defense. The injured reports are not available for now.
Israeli strikes
Israel on Friday, June 13, launched the first series of his “preventive strokes” against military and nuclear targets in Iran.
On Friday evening reports on attacks on other sites of Iranian territory appeared. The highest spiritual leader Ali Khamenei warned that Israel “must expect a strict punishment”.
