The U.S. launched retaliatory airstrikes against Iranian military sites on Sunday after Tehran launched its own wave of missiles and drones targeting Kuwait and Bahrain. U.S. and allied forces successfully intercepted the strikes.
Iran launched multiple missile barrages toward Israel on Sunday, prompting air raid sirens across regions and sending civilians into shelters, according to the Israel Defense Forces (IDF).
The military said the Israeli Air Force (IAF) was actively working to intercept incoming threats and strike targets where necessary.
"At this time, the Israeli Air Force is operating to intercept and strike threats where necessary to remove the threat," the IDF said, warning that Israel's air defenses are "not hermetic" and urging the public to follow Home Front Command instructions.
Residents in affected areas, including the northern city of Haifa, received emergency alerts directing them to enter protected spaces and remain there until further notice.
Authorities said shelters should only be left following explicit instructions.
Meanwhile, Iranian state media reported that a second wave of missiles had been launched toward Israel, though no further details were provided.
Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) warned that Israel must halt its attacks in Lebanon, saying any expansion of military operations or retaliation against Iran would be met with "more crushing and regretful blows," according to Reuters.
After a fourth round of missiles was identified towards Northern Israel and the West Bank from Iran, the IDF confirmed all missiles had been intercepted.
Axios also reported Israel would retaliate to the attack, citing an official source.

FINISH THE JOB! NO MORE HALF-ASSERY!
How? I’m sure the IRGC are safely in hiding to rake out all at once. And just how many missiles does the US have left? Trump declared we pounded them so hard that they couldn’t come back from that. And yet, here we are, having to protect Israeli and US interests.
Oil futures should be up quite a bit in a few hours
Tehran holds about 11% of Iran’s total population and houses nearly a quarter of its people when including the surrounding metropolitan area. For commerce and industry, the Tehran province dominates the country, hosting about 45% of Iran’s large industrial firms and handling approximately 30% of the national GDP. You boys want to end this shit with finality, that is a target rich area.
How many missiles do you think Iran has left?
Funny how you folks never mention that.
Ah, ceasefire, I hardly knew ye.
Time to go to the mattresses.
News Desk Anchor: “Please repeat those last few lines. There’s so much bomb and missile blast noise we can’t hear your summary of how the ceasefire is holding and the peace talks are gaining traction.”
Reporter: “Huh? What?”
That was Kamala’s old political line early in her career.
As many as China can provide, I would expect.
Big Mo only has one good leg. How hard can this be?
Agreed. There will be more depleting our Strategic Petroleum Reserve. I wonder why China hasn’t used this opportunity to attack Taiwan.
There is two factions in Iran:
The ‘civilian’ government.
and
The IRGC military government.
The IRGC has all the guns.
Guess who is in charge............
China will never invade Taiwan.
I thought we’d destroyed the Iranian military??
Because they know they will lose far more than they gain, the idea of invasion is more powerful to the Chinese regime.
Better to look toward Siberia, no one will care, good or bad for us
and how are they apparently replenishing their supply?
It’s on like Donkey Kong.
