Israel says Iran has fired missiles and it warned residents to shelter in place
SUMMARY: On Tuesday, Iran claimed responsibility for launching dozens of missiles at Israel amid escalating tensions between Israel and Iranian proxies, Hezbollah and Hamas. Israeli residents were ordered to seek shelter as air raid sirens sounded nationwide. Explosions were reported in Tel Aviv and Jerusalem. The U.S. and Israel warned of serious repercussions for attacks from Iran, which has supported Hezbollah. The conflict intensified with Israeli airstrikes on southern Lebanon and retaliatory rocket fire from Hezbollah. Concerns of a broader regional war grew as Israel mobilized forces, with updated evacuation orders issued for northern citizens.
