Wounded Iran immediately lashes out at Israel launching volleys of ballistic missiles causing ‘large-scale destruction'
IRAN has launched fresh waves of missiles into Israel just hours after the US blitzed its key nuclear sites, injuring at least 23 people.
Tehran, reeling from the unprecedented airstrikes, has warned of "everlasting consequences" after the US got involved.

Two waves of around 20 and 10 missiles were fired at targets across Israel, according to the IDF.
The weapons penetrated air defences and caused damage in four civilian locations, including Tel Aviv.
Thirteen people were wounded in the Tel Aviv area, six in Nes Tziona, three in Haifa, and one on a highway near Beer Yaakov.
The person injured on the road was in "moderate" condition, whilst the other victims were all "lightly" wounded.
Sirens failed to sound in Haifa, and the IDF said it was investigating a possible malfunction with the "interceptor".
Iranian state media claimed that a Khyber missile was deployed for the first time in the conflict.
Announcing the fresh attack, the Mehr news agency said: The twentieth wave of large-scale missile-drone operations by the Islamic Republic of Iran's armed forces was carried out against the military targets of the Zionist regime."
