Iran launches missiles at Israel in first attack since April 8 ceasefire

Israel said it intercepted all missiles as sirens sounded in several areas and schools were closed nationwide, with no casualties reported.

  • On Sunday, Iran launched ballistic missiles at Israel, marking the first direct Iranian attack since the April ceasefire took effect. The Israeli military said it intercepted the incoming barrage.
  • The retaliatory strikes followed an Israeli bombardment of Beirut's Dahiyeh district that killed two people and injured 20, according to Lebanon's health ministry. Iran and Hezbollah officials denounced the operation as a ceasefire violation.
  • Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf vowed a "decisive and painful" response to the Beirut strike. The Israel Defense Forces reported intercepting the missiles while maintaining defensive readiness.
  • President Donald Trump urged Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu not to retaliate Sunday, telling Iran, "You've shot your missiles, that's enough. Get back to the table and make a deal."
  • Pakistan's Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi visited Tehran to deliver messages as diplomatic efforts persist between regional powers. Analysts warn the escalation threatens to derail fragile peace talks and reignite wider conflict.
