Iran on Sunday launched multiple waves of missiles at Israel, escalating tensions in the Middle East as Tehran warned that further attacks would continue for days and could expand to include more targets linked to Israel and the United States.
The Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) described the strikes as a warning to Israel, saying the action was a response to what it called Israeli aggression, including an earlier attack on Lebanon.
According to the IRGC, ballistic missiles were fired at the Ramat David Airbase, located southeast of the northern Israeli city of Haifa. The group also accused the United States and Israel of violating commitments under a ceasefire agreement that took effect in early April.
In a statement, the IRGC said: “this operation is not a passing event, but rather the beginning of a full week of continuous strikes”.
It added: “Waves of missiles and drones will continue to be launched around the clock for the next seven days until the enemy is deterred and ceases its crimes.”
“Any targeting of Iranian territory will be met with a devastating and overwhelming response beyond all expectation.”
The Iranian military body further warned that if Israel repeated what it described as aggressive actions, its response would be wider in scope and would target all American and Israeli interests across the region.
Meanwhile, United States President Donald Trump called on Iran to halt further attacks and resume diplomatic engagement following the missile launches.
A Fox News correspondent quoted Trump as saying: “You’ve shot your missiles. That’s enough. Get back to the table and make a deal.”
Israel’s military said its air defence systems had successfully responded to the attack.
The Israel Air Force said it had intercepted “all the missiles launched from Iran so far”.
It added that “additional launches” had been detected and that Israeli forces were continuing efforts to track and neutralise incoming threats.
