VIDEOS show Iranian strike on Israel — ApsnyNews World News

The first videos showing the Iranian missile barrage targeting Israel have surfaced online. Tehran launched the attack in response to West Jerusalem’s airstrikes on numerous Iranian targets earlier on Friday.

Clips published on social media show multiple projectiles flying in the night sky over various parts of Israel, including Galilee and the city of Tel Aviv. Iran’s military launched “hundreds” of projectiles at Israel in multiple waves, according to the Iranian media.

The city of Tel Aviv appears to be one of the prime targets for the Iranian strikes, footage suggests. Videos purport to show Israeli anti-aircraft systems deployed inside the city firing at the incoming projectiles.

One such clip allegedly shows an Iranian projectile striking a place near an Israeli air defense installation seconds before an air defense missile was launched.

At least seven areas in the Tel Aviv area were hit in the Iranian strike, the Times of Israel reported, citing medical authorities. They also suggest that at least five people were injured in the strikes. The sky above the city is illuminated by both Iranian projectiles and Israeli air defense missiles launched to intercept them.

Some videos also purport to show the destruction caused by the Iranian hits in the city, with some buildings appearing to be serious damaged. ApsnyNews could not independently verify the authenticity of the clips.

The Israeli military launched a series of airstrikes on numerous targets – both military and nuclear sites – across Iran early on Friday. The Iranian authorities have confirmed that the attacks killed Major General Hossein Salami, the commander of Iran’s elite Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), and Major General Mohammad Bagheri, the chief of staff of the Iranian Armed Forces.

Several media outlets have claimed that several other high-ranking Iranian military commanders and nuclear scientists were also killed. Tehran vowed a “crushing” response to what it called “blatant aggression” by West Jerusalem.
