Israeli Channel 12 estimated that approximately 300 missiles were launched from Iran in separate salvos, confirming that several soldiers were injured at the Nevatim Air Base.
The Iranian strikes caused power outages in several areas of “Israel”, according to the Zionist media.
Zionist settlers rushed to shelters throughout the occupied territories after the missiles were launched from Iran.
Fires broke out around the Defence Ministry headquarters in Tel Aviv as a result of Iranian missiles, according to Hebrew media.

Zionist media described the situation as “unusual,” especially with the sound of air raid sirens in all areas.
Israeli strikes kill top Iranian generals
The salvo came hours after Israel said its widespread air raids had killed several top Iranian generals, including most of the senior leadership of the Revolutionary Guards’ air force, following several rounds of strikes that hit about 200 targets, including nuclear facilities.
As the two sides traded blows, Iran’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, vowed to bring Israel “to ruin” during a televised address.
“The armed forces of the Islamic Republic will inflict heavy blows upon this malevolent enemy,” Khamenei told the nation.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israel — the Middle East’s only, if undeclared, nuclear power — struck at the “heart of Iran’s nuclear enrichment programme”, taking aim at scientists and the main uranium enrichment facility in Natanz.
The strikes would “continue as many days as it takes”, the Israeli P.M said, while the military said intelligence showed Iran was approaching the “point of no return” on its nuclear programme.

The strikes killed Iran’s highest-ranking military officer, armed forces chief of staff Mohammad Bagheri, and the head of the Revolutionary Guards, Hossein Salami, Iranian media reported.
Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi rejected “calls for Iran to show restraint in the face of Israeli aggression”, according to a statement.
Khamenei swiftly appointed new commanders to replace those killed, while state media said a senior adviser to the supreme leader had himself been wounded.
