Update (1631ET): Minutes ago, ‘hundreds’ of Iranian missiles were launched at the Israeli cities of Tel Aviv and Haifa – which Iran described as ‘cluster missiles’ in what was the fifth salvo today.
The latest from Iran was launched shortly after Israeli Air Forces completed “a wave of strikes against military and strategic assets, nuclear program sites and high-ranking figures” according to a Saturday evening statement by the IDF. The latest Iranian launch came after Iranian state TV said ‘heavy and destructive’ attacks against Israel were expected within hours.
Air raid sirens could be heard in Haifa and northern Israel.
It appears that Israel intercepted most of the rockets, though some got through – as footage has been posted on social media of a refinery on fire in Haifa.
