‘A long night of attacks, with fears of more to come’

There was a night of intense fighting between Israel and Iran, the two parties exchanging fire and explosions heard in Tel Aviv, Jerusalem and Tehran.

The ballistic missiles struck parties of Israel, with three people killed and dozens injured, according to Israeli authorities.

Iran launched its attack in retaliation for Israeli strikes which targeted Nuclear installations and military bases on Friday.

The country’s representative with the UN said that 78 people were killed during Friday strikes and at least 320 injured, with “overwhelming majority” civilians.
