Iran launched missiles at Israel as alarms sounded across the country and Israelis rushed for shelter. The Iran Guards, meanwhile, threatened ‘crushing attacks’ if Israel responded to missiles. It said the attack on Israel was a response to the killings of Guards commander and other leaders

The firing of missiles came after Israeli troops launched ground raids into Lebanon, in the biggest escalation of regional warfare since fighting erupted in Gaza a year ago.
