Iran Israel War Live Updates:
Air raid sirens sounded in Israel on Sunday as its military said it intercepted incoming Iranian missiles, the first such barrage since an April ceasefire took hold in the West Asia conflict.
Iran's powerful Revolutionary Guards called the attack a "warning" after Israel struck Beirut's southern suburbs earlier in the day, threatening wider strikes in the event of repeated aggression.
An April 8 ceasefire had halted major hostilities between Iran and its foes Israel and the United States.
Stay tuned for latest updates.

Iran Israel War Live Updates: Trump says Israel-Iran strikes will not derail US talks with Tehran US President Donald Trump said on Sunday that new strikes by Israel and Iran would not affect his administration’s peace talks with Tehran, saying Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu “doesn’t call the shots.”
Trump has leaned on Israel to stop its attacks in Lebanon to allow room for a deal to end the wider war with Iran, including rebuking Netanyahu with obscenities in a phone call last week. However, Israel earlier on Sunday launched strikes in the Beirut area for the first time since the US announced a truce plan for Lebanon last week.

Israel has every right to defend themselves.
That’s a MUCH smaller bomb cloud than I would hope for.
Depends on what it is......................
Official said the Israeli strikes were “relatively limited” in their scope.
This is ridiculous.
The War should have been over in April.
TACO is the operative force.
BACO also.
