#IsraelIranConflict Iran hits Israel with retaliatory missiles after nuclear site attacks

Iranian long-range missiles have targeted sites across Israel, injuring at least 40 people, in retaliation for deadly Israeli attacks on nuclear sites and military leaders.

Iran says Israeli attacks killed 78 people, including senior military officials, and wounded more than 320 people in Iran, as the Israeli military continues to launch strikes against Iranian military and nuclear sites, as well as major cities.

Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says the military operation will continue as long as necessary.

United States Secretary of State Marco Rubio says the US is “not involved” in the strikes and warns Iran against attacking
