Iran launches wave of missiles at Israel following US bombing of nuclear sites

ISRAEL, JUN 23 – Iran launched its 20th wave of missile and drone attacks on Israel, with 40 missiles fired and at least 23 people injured, in retaliation for US-led airstrikes on Iranian nuclear sites.

  • Early Sunday morning, Iranian forces launched around 30 ballistic missiles targeting Tel Aviv and the country's third largest city, causing injuries and damage.
  • The missile strike followed overnight U.S. airstrikes on Iranian nuclear sites, escalating tensions and prompting Iranian threats of regional retaliation.
  • The Iranian Revolutionary Guard announced deployment of the Kheibar Shekan, a fourth-generation long-range missile with a 1,450 km range and satellite-guided, maneuverable warheads.
  • Israel's air defenses intercepted over 450 missiles and 1,000 drones, yet some missiles caused significant destruction and approximately 80 injuries, with 16 hospitalized.
  • The event raised Israel and neighboring Gulf states' alert levels, signaling possible further escalation as Iran’s foreign minister declared diplomatic avenues closed.
