IAF downs 7 drones, Israel says
The Israeli Air Force said it had intercepted seven drones launched toward Israel with about an hour on Sunday morning.
The IDF said it is currently striking "surface-to-surface missile sites."
Aerial attacks between Israel and Iran continued overnight into Monday, marking a fourth day of strikes following Israel's Friday attack. That surprise strike hit the heart of Iran's nuclear program, killing several nuclear scientists as well as high-ranking military leaders, according to Israeli officials.
The U.S. did not provide any military assistance or have any involvement in Israel's Friday strike, a U.S. official told ABC News. President Donald Trump told ABC News on Sunday, "It's possible we could get involved."
The Israeli Air Force said it had intercepted seven drones launched toward Israel with about an hour on Sunday morning.
Iranian aerial strikes targeting Israel killed eight people and injured more than 200 others overnight, Israel's Foreign Ministry said on Sunday morning.
Four of the dead were children, the ministry said in a social media post, which accused Iran of "deliberately targeted Israeli civilians as they slept." Another 35 people were missing, the statement said.
The Israeli Police said there had been "multiple confirmed fatalities" and injuries in the central area of the Tel Aviv District, where a rocket struck.
"Iran targets innocents," the ministry said. "Israel targets nuclear and military sites -- to stop the world's most dangerous terror regime from acquiring the world's most dangerous weapons. We will do whatever it takes to defend our people. Israel is doing what must be done."
Israel identified and struck missile launchers in Iran overnight, the Israel Defense Forces said Sunday morning.
"Over the past hour, the IAF completed an additional series of strikes on storage and missile launch infrastructure sties in western Iran," the IDF said in an update on the Telegram messaging app at about 8 a.m. in Israel.
Sirens are sounding in Tel Aviv as Israel Defense Forces said it has identified another barrage of missiles launched from Iran toward Israel.
Concurrently, the IDF announced it has finished a set of strikes in Tehran on "infrastructure sites of the Iranian nuclear weapons project and fuel tankers."
