The Israel Defense Forces confirmed Saturday that Iran has launched yet another aerial assault on its territory and that millions are seeking shelter in Northern Israel.
As we reported, the Jewish state attacked Iran’s nuclear sites Friday and took out a large number of scientists and military officials in a devastating assault. The IDF said that even as Iran counterattacks, they themselves are still targeting Tehran:
Sirens rang out across parts of Israel late Saturday, as Iran launched a fifth barrage of missiles into Israel, according to the Israel Defense Forces (IDF).
Israeli defensive systems intercepted incoming ballistic threats in northern Israel.
In a post on X, IDF Spokesperson LTC Nadav Shoshani confirmed: "While the IDF is operating to intercept missiles launched from Iran, the IAF is currently striking military targets in Tehran.”
This marks the fifth wave of Iranian missile fire since hostilities escalated on Friday, following Israel’s targeted airstrikes on Iranian nuclear and military assets.

Fox News reporter Trey Yingst was on the ground and noted that the attack was significant:
Fox News chief foreign correspondent Trey Yingst, reporting live from Tel Aviv, said, “Iran began firing more missiles into Israel moments ago.” Fox News captured footage of more than 15 ballistic missiles streaking across the night sky, likely headed toward Haifa, a northern Israeli port city.
“The entirety of the country has gotten an alert to head into bomb shelters,” Yingst reported, noting some of the missiles were intercepted midair with audible booms heard as Israeli defense systems engaged.
“We do know some of them were intercepted,” he said, adding that initial reports confirm at least one impact in Haifa. “This is a significant attack.”
He also revealed that the Jewish state took out a large number of military officials in the despotic regime:
Yingst also reported that Israeli forces have eliminated 30 senior officials in Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) after tricking them into a meeting location that was subsequently struck.
