Waves of airstrikes in Israel and Iran as exchange of fire enters second night

What we know

• AIRSTRIKES CONTINUE: Israel launched a massive attack on Iran yesterday, sparking retaliatory strikes on Israel from Iran. It marked a dramatic escalation in long-running tensions between the two heavily armed countries, and raises the risk of a wider regional war that some fear could draw in the U.S.
• ISRAELIS TAKE SHELTER: The Israeli military urged citizens to “enter a protected space and remain there until further notice” after it identified additional missiles launched from Iran. At least three people have been killed by Iranian strikes and dozens injured. Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has said they will show “no mercy” to Israel.
• IRANIAN RESIDENTS REPORT EXPLOSIONS: Iran’s nuclear capabilities, military leadership and scientists have been targeted in Israel’s strikes. Residents in Iran reported explosions into this morning, and at least 100 people have been killed and hundreds more injured, Iranian officials said. In a video address to Iranian people yesterday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said his fight is not against them, but against the Islamic regime.
• U.S. INVOLVEMENT: A spokesperson for Iran’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs says talks over Tehran’s nuclear program between the U.S. and Iran that were scheduled for Sunday have been cancelled. Iranian officials blamed the U.S. and said today that their attacks will spread to American military bases in the region. President Donald Trump said in a Truth Social post that Russian President Vladimir Putin called him today, saying “He feels, as do I, this war in Israel-Iran should end.”
