Trump threatens to respond 'at levels never seen before' if Iran attacks US
Donald Trump has threatened to respond to any attack by Iran on the US with "the full strength and might of the US Armed Forces".
In a post on Truth Social, the US president said the US had "nothing to do with the attack on Iran, tonight".
He wrote: "If we are attacked in any way, shape or form by Iran, the full strength and might of the U.S. Armed Forces will come down on you at levels never seen before.
"However, we can easily get a deal done between Iran and Israel, and end this bloody conflict!!!"
His comments came as Iran and Israel exchanged more strikes overnight, with reports from Israel saying eight people were killed in two hits on residential buildings.
Israel says it attacked Iran's defence ministry and nuclear project
Israel continued its own attacks overnight, saying on social media that it targeted the ministry of defence HQ in Tehran, the base for a nuclear project, and "additional targets".
Casualty figures are so far unknown.
Israel has insisted its actions are vital to stop Iran developing a nuclear weapon in the near future. Iran, however, has long maintained that its nuclear programme is for domestic purposes only.
Eight killed in two strikes on residential buildings - Israeli media
Israeli media are reporting at least eight people have been killed in Iranian missile strikes overnight.
Four of them are said to have been killed after a building suffered a direct hit in Bat Yam, just south of Tel Aviv, while another four women - from the same family - reportedly died in the northern city of Tamra.
Sky News has not yet been able to independently verify these figures.
Israel's MDA emergency service has so far only confirmed four deaths: A woman in her 60s, a woman in her 80s, a boy around 10 years old, and another young girl. (Believed to be the Bat Yam incident).
It also said 140 people were injured in the overnight attacks. As always, these figures could be revised.
