Meanwhile, Iranian ballistic missile strikes have impacted across Israel, from the coastal city of Haifa and the small Arab-Israeli city of Tamra in the north, to the small village of Zavdiel in the south. Iranian ballistic missile attacks have damaged buildings in and around major Israeli cities, including Tel Aviv.

Elsewhere in the statement, the IRGC claimed that Iran has “tracked and destroyed three cruise missiles, 10 drones, and dozens of hostile micro-UAVs” in areas of Iran that were attacked. “Stuck” – that’s how most people I’ve spoken to describe life right now in Iran.

Israel and Iran exchanged fire for the fourth consecutive day on Monday, stoking fears of an all-out war with the potential to drag in others in the oil-rich region and force the US into a more hands-on stance.
