The Israeli army announced on Tuesday the launch of a “broad” wave of attacks on targets in Tehran and Beirut. The operation is a reaction to the earlier, coordinated missile fire on the territory of Israel carried out by Iran and the terrorist group Hezbollah.
The attacks don't stop
In a message published on Telegram, the Israeli command said it was striking the key “infrastructure of the terrorist regime” in the capital of Iran and the military facilities and infrastructure of Hezbollah in Lebanon.
Israel and the United States have been at war with Iran since February 28. In retaliation, pro-Iranian Hezbollah attacked Israel in early March, entering the conflict and drawing Lebanon into the war.

In response to Hezbollah's shelling of northern Israel, the Israeli army has been conducting massive airstrikes on various parts of Lebanon.

According to the authorities in Beirut, at least 850 people have been killed in Israeli attacks since the beginning of the war, and over 2,000 were injured; nearly 850 thousand inhabitants of Lebanon had to leave their homes.
