ADVERTISEMENTIran fired more than 180 ballistic missiles at Israel, in a dramatic escalation that risks a wider war in the Middle East days after Israel killed the leader of Iran-backed Hezbollah.
Israel immediately vowed to retaliate the strike, with Israeli military spokesperson Daniel Hagari saying in a televised address that Israel was prepared to “defend itself” in a “timely manner”, though it didn’t provide details of how or when it would respond.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Iran would pay for the attack, which he called a “big mistake.”
