Iran launched dozens of ballistic missiles toward Israel on Friday night in retaliation for Israel's surprise attack early Friday. Israel struck at the heart of the Iran's nuclear program, killing several nuclear scientists as well as high-ranking military leaders, according to Israeli officials.

Dozens of ballistic missiles struck Tel Aviv, Israel’s second largest city, and other sites in the country on Friday in what the IDF said was an attack on civilians. Footage showed at least one high-rise building badly damaged in the city centre. It was not immediately clear whether it had taken a direct hit.
