JERUSALEM/ TEHRAN: Iran has launched a fresh wave of attacks, with reports of missiles hitting central Israel.
Israeli emergency services say at least four people have been killed in the strikes with more than 100 injured.
The Iranian strikes follow the Israeli military confirming it had carried out a number of strikes against Iranian nuclear infrastructure sites
Tehran’s Oil Ministry says the Shahran Oil Depot in the capital was hit in the latest Israeli strikes.
A video verified by media also shows a fire burning near the Haifa oil refinery following tonight’s salvo of missiles fired from Iran.
Iran’s President Masoud Pezeshkian is threatening a “more severe” response if Israel doesn’t stand down.
The strikes come as Washington and Tehran were due to resume talks on Iran’s nuclear program on Sunday but now, the talks have been cancelled, according to mediator Oman.
US had ‘nothing to do’ with attack on Iran: Trump
President Donald Trump says the US is not involved in the latest conflict between Israel and Iran.
“The US had nothing to do with the attack on Iran, tonight,” Trump has said in a post on Truth Social.
Iran has warned the US and its allies not to help Israel stop Tehran’s retaliatory strikes.
“If we are attacked in any way, shape or form by Iran, the full strength and might of the US Armed Forces will come down on you at levels never seen before,” Trump adds. “However, we can easily get a deal done between Iran and Israel, and end this bloody conflict!!!”
What are the Iranian targets in Israel’s latest strikes?
As Israel and Iran launched new waves of attacks on each other late Saturday, here are the places that have been hit in Iran:
Iran’s oil ministry said that Israeli strikes had targeted Shahran oil depot and a fuel tank in Tehran. The situation was under control at both of these sites, the ministry said.
The oil ministry also said that two major gas fields in the southern Bushehr province were attacked by Israel.
Israeli strikes also targeted the country’s defence ministry in Tehran, slightly damaging one of the office buildings, as well as the ministry’s Organization of Defensive Innovation and Research, according to Iranian media and the IDF.
These sites were targeted because of their association with Iran’s nuclear weapons project, the IDF said.
On Saturday night, the IDF said Israel had also targeted an underground site in western Iran “used for storing and launching surface-to-surface missiles and cruise missiles”, and that “the senior figures who visited it in the past were also eliminated”.
Sirens sound across Israel for second night in row
For a second night, sirens sounded across Israel, as air defences tried to intercept Iranian missiles.
In Tamra in the north of the country, a mainly Palestinian town, a house partially collapsed after being hit.
Hours later, in a second wave of attacks, a building in the central city of Bat Yam was badly damaged. As morning broke, emergency teams were still searching for the missing. (Int’l News Desk)
