Iran has launched sustained retaliatory missile and drone barrages against Israel in the hours after a major joint US–Israeli strike on Iranian targets, triggering continuous air-raid sirens and forcing millions into shelters across Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, Haifa and beyond as civil aviation halts and national emergency measures take hold.

At least one Israeli civilian has been killed and dozens more wounded in central Tel Aviv and other urban areas from incoming projectiles that evaded interceptions, while emergency services report scores of additional injuries nationwide.

Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps says it is conducting its most “devastating offensive” in history, targeting Israeli military sites and roughly 27 US bases across the Middle East with waves of ballistic missiles and armed drones.

The strikes come in direct retaliation for the February 28 US–Israeli operation against Iranian leadership and missile infrastructure that killed Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and senior commanders, collapsing earlier diplomatic efforts.

Regional airspaces remain closed, and governments from Gulf states to Jordan are on high alert as the conflict escalates, with additional casualties and damage being assessed amid fears of a broader conflagration.
