Hours after Iran launched ballistic missiles at Israel on June 7, the Israeli military said it conducted strikes against military targets in the western and central region of Iran.
Several explosions were heard in the Iranian cities of Tehran, Tabriz, and Isfahan, local media reported early on June 8. The strikes by the Israeli military occurred after Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) said it had targeted the Ramat David Airbase in northern Israel with ballistic missile fire on the evening of June 7.
The Israel Defense Forces said it identified missiles fired from Iran toward northern Israel and "defensive systems are operating to intercept the threat." Sirens were sounded in several areas across the country after the missiles were detected, according to the Israel Defense Forces.
The IRGC said the Israeli military must halt attacks on Lebanon and warned that if Israel retaliates, it will face "more crushing and regretful blows."
