Iran has launched a ballistic missile attack on Israel, and it looks like they're throwing as many missiles as possible into the Jewish state to overwhelm the country's missile defense system.
Here's what we're looking at:
Reuters reports that almost 200 missiles have been launched from Iran at Israel, according to Israeli Army Radio.
It is unclear at this time how many have reached any targets, with most reports from witnesses recounting missiles flying overhead.
The Iranian revolutionary guard said the missile launches are in retaliation for Israel's killing of the Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh, who was killed in Tehran in July and, last week, the killing in Lebanon of the leader of Hezbollah, Hassan Nasrallah, and the Iranian Revolutionary Guard deputy commander Abbas Nilforoushan.
More from the New York Post:
Iran has fired hundreds of ballistic missiles at Israel as civilians rushed to shelter sites across the country.
Videos on social media showed missiles or shrapnel hitting Tel Aviv and other population centers.
Impact sites have been reported in Tel Aviv, near the Dead Sea, as well as in the south and in Sharon.
Sirens flared Tuesday afternoon as Iranian missiles targeted central and southern Israel in Tehran's first direct attack on the Jewish state since April, according to the Israeli military.
The attacks are coming in waves, with reporters from The Guardian reporting a second assault flying overhead in Jerusalem less than 10 minutes after the first set of missile strikes.
