STORYLINE:
An Israeli rescue service said Iranian missiles struck areas in northern and central Israel after the U.S. carried out strikes on Iran overnight.

The missiles wounded 16 in Israel, and footage of the aftermath showed various destroyed buildings in Tel Aviv.

The Magen David Adom rescue service said one of those wounded was a 30-year-old man in moderate condition and the other 10 were lightly wounded.

Shortly after the Iranian missile barrage, Israel announced its warplanes were conducting strikes on “military targets” in western Iran, without immediately elaborating.

The United States has inserted itself into Israel's war against Iran, bombing three of the Islamic Republic's key nuclear sites overnight. U.S. President Donald Trump asserted that the sites were “completely and fully obliterated,” and warned there would be additional strikes if Iran retaliates.

The U.S. attacks came after a week of open conflict between Israel and Iran, sparked by Israel's sudden barrage of attacks against Iran’s nuclear and military structure.

Israeli strikes began on June 13. Targeting Iranian military and nuclear sites, they killed several top military officials and nuclear scientists. Iran retaliated by firing hundreds of missiles and drones at Israel, some of which penetrated the country’s vaunted multi-tiered air defense system. The war so far has killed hundreds of people and wounded more than 1,000 in Iran and killed two dozen and wounded hundreds in Israel.
