On Saturday, Israeli fighter jets launched attacks on Iranian military targets and missile production facilities in response to a significant ballistic missile attack from Tehran.

Israeli military chief, Lieutenant General Herzi Halevi, issued a stern warning, stating that should Iran retaliate, Israel would strike 'very, very hard,' hitting targets previously spared.

The Israeli military's actions are part of broader military operations in the region, including engagements against Hezbollah in Lebanon and Hamas in Gaza.

Recently, Israeli tanks advanced into the Lebanese village of Khiam, marking their deepest incursion yet against Hezbollah, which announced Naim Qassem as the successor to their late chief, Hassan Nasrallah.

In Gaza, Israeli airstrikes have intensified, with a recent attack on a residential block resulting in nearly 100 casualties.

Tensions continue to escalate following Israel's ban on the UNRWA, the main UN aid agency in the region.

The ongoing conflict follows an outbreak of violence that began last year when Hamas attacked Israeli towns on October 7.
