Israel v Iran LIVE: Iran fires barrage of missiles at Israel as IDF strikes oil depot and says ‘Tehran is burning'
IRAN has reportedly launched over 100 missiles at Israel in the latest round of intense strikes in the Middle East. The Israeli military quickly responded to the deadly barrage by striking Iranian oil depots - as officials said Tehran was left up in flames. 6 6 6 6 Iran struck first in the second night of strikes with explosions reported across residential regions in the country. Haifa and Tel Aviv were said to be the main targets with air raid sirens also been sounded in Amman, the capital of Jordan. Around 100 missiles are said to have been launched in Iran's follow-up wave of their operation "True Promise 3", according to state TV. Several injures have been reported with a woman in her 20s killed in Western Galilee. The Israeli military responded by carrying out air strikes in Tehran while they worked to intercept the Iranian missiles. Israeli planes attacked four targets in Tehran with the Ministry of Defense, the nuclear headquarters, nuclear laboratories, and oil facilities all hit. Footage online shows the Shahran oil depot up in flames after a pinpoint strike. It comes as Tehran vowed to strike US, UK and French military bases in the region if they step in to try and defend Israel. Israel's allies across the world have in the past helped Tel Aviv shoot down missiles fired from Iran during previous clashes between the two enemy powers. But as the situation escalates towards full-scale war - Iranian state media reported they consider US, UK and French forces the firing line. It warned Tehran would target military bases and ships located in the region if the three countries provided support to Israeli. It came as Israel's defence minister vowed "Tehran will burn" after Iran launched hundreds of missiles toward them. At least three people were killed and dozens more wounded in the first night of strikes on Tel Aviv and Jerusalem on Friday - while Israel continued to pound targets in Iran. Both sides sit on the brink of war after Israel accused Iran of trying to develop a nuclear bomb - launching a massive wave of pre-emptive strikes on Friday. Israel killed top military leaders, nuclear scientists and blasted secretive sites believed to be being used by Iran to develop nuclear weapons. Defence minister Israel Katz said Iran"crossed red lines after it dared to attack the civilian population" and will now "pay a heavy price for it". He added: "If Khamenei continues to fire missiles at the Israeli home front, Tehran will burn." Reports emerged that Israel's version of the Pentagon - the HaKirya - had been hit, though these were not confirmed. Tehran branded the retaliatory strikes as a "punishment" attack on Israel. Both sides have warned more is yet to come, with Iran's supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei vowing to inflict "heavy blows". He said his armed forces will bring the "vile regime [Israel] to ruin". Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told Iran that "more is on the way" and warned "the regime does not know what will hit them". 6 6 Stay up to date with the latest on Israel vs Iran with The Sun's live blog below... just now By Georgie English 1 dead after Iranian attacks A woman in her 20s has been killed following Iran's strikes, Israel's emergency service Magen David Adom (MDA) has said.
