Iran fires hundreds of missiles on Israel 

 

Israel has come under a barrage of attacks with hundreds of ballistic missiles fired into several parts of the country, including its state capital Tel Aviv.

 

 

While some of the missiles were intercepted by the Iron Dome, many others landed, including in densely populated areas.

 

The Iranian Mission to the United Nations said that Tehran’s response has “been duly carried out” with the barrage of missiles launched at Israel.

“Iran’s legal, rational, and legitimate response to the terrorist acts of the Zionist regime—which involved targeting Iranian nationals and interests and infringing upon the national sovereignty of the Islamic Republic of Iran—has been duly carried out,” the Permanent Mission of the Islamic Republic of Iran to the United Nations said in a post on X.

The mission said that if Israel should “dare to respond or commit further acts of malevolence, a subsequent and crushing response will ensue.”

The mission added that “regional states and the Zionists’ supporters are advised to part ways with the regime.”
