STORYLINE:
As air alert sirens continue to go off regularly around Israel, people who find themselves behind the wheel in the moment, are instructed to stop and seek shelter.

An Associated Press cameraman was among those complying on Friday afternoon.

Israel had earlier announced another wave of strikes in Iran targeting infrastructure, and said its air force had hit more than 200 targets in the last 24 hours, including missile launchers, defense systems and weapons production sites.

Iran has continued to launch widespread missile and drone attacks on Israel and neighboring Gulf states, and has effectively closed the Strait of Hormuz, through which a fifth of the world's traded oil passes, even as U.S. and Israeli warplanes pummel military and other targets across Iran.

Iranian authorities say that more than 1,300 people have been killed there, and Israel has reported 12 deaths since the start of the conflict.

The U.S. has lost at least 11 soldiers, while another eight have suffered severe injuries.

In the most recent incident, the victims were 6 crew aboard US KC-135 refuelling aircraft that crashed in Iraq, according the US military.

The military says the circumstances of the incident are being investigated.
