Following a day of relentless Israeli strikes on Iran, Iran has launched a counterattack, firing missiles at Israel, particularly targeting Tel Aviv. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) of Iran has issued a warning for Tel Aviv residents to evacuate immediately for their safety. This has been confirmed by Al Jazeera and The Times of Israel.
According to a military statement from Iran, air raid sirens have been activated in several areas of northern Israel following the missile launches. Israeli citizens have been advised to seek shelter and remain there until further instructions are provided. Israel’s defense systems are actively working to counter the attack, as per official statements.
Prior to this, Israel conducted strikes on Iran’s state television and radio buildings, among other targets in Tehran. The Israeli forces had earlier ordered residents of a large area in Tehran to evacuate. In response, Iran’s Revolutionary Guard called on Tel Aviv residents to leave the city as quickly as possible.
The exchange of attacks has escalated tensions between the two nations, raising concerns in the international community about the worsening situation.
