Tensions between Iran and Israel erupted over the weekend. After Iran launched a missile attack that was the first such bombardment since the ceasefire began, Israel responded with airstrikes of its own. The exchange began after Tehran warned of retaliation for an Israeli assault on the suburbs of Beirut that came without warning earlier in the day and in apparent defiance of a U.S. request for Israel to stand down.
Israel’s military indicated the Iranian missiles were intercepted and told people they could leave areas where they had taken shelter. Syrian Civil Defense teams conduct investigations at the scene after debris from some of the ballistic missiles launched during the mutual attacks between Israel and Iran fell in the Tafas district of Daraa province in southern Syria, on June 07, 202Following Iran’s bombardment, Israel’s public broadcaster reported President Donald Trump did not want Israel to respond further, and the Financial Times quoted the president saying, "I call all the shots.
He doesn’t call the shots.
" The fighting between the two prompted President Trump to demand on Truth Social, "Israel and Iran must immediately stop ‘shooting. ’"Early Monday morning, Israeli forces launched airstrikes into central and western Iran in response to recent missile attacks by Tehran. Explosions were heard in Isfahan, Tabriz, and Tehran, according to Iranian state television, which did not elaborate on the blasts. Iranian officials have not indicated how much damage the Israeli attacks may have caused.
In Saudi Arabia, missile alert sirens sounded shortly after the Israeli strikes in an area near an air base the U.S. military uses. The government announced shortly afterward that the threat had passed but did not elaborate. Israel says their military targeted Iran petrochemical facilities in Mahshahr in their response to the strikes. The sites are used to make "unique materials that serve as critical components for the development of ballistic missiles.
