ALBAWABA - The recent video shows the Iranian hypersonic missiles destroying the Nevatim Military Airport in the Negev, Israel. Concerns have been voiced over the attack's potential for further retaliation as well as the security of nearby military sites. 

The Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) confirmed that Iran has launched several rockets, some of which have reached Jerusalem. As a result, air raid sirens have been activated across the city and its surrounding areas. This escalation follows a recent warning from the U.S. about an imminent missile strike from Iran. 

Sirens also rang out in Tel Aviv, prompting millions of Israelis to seek shelter. The Israeli Foreign Ministry announced that alarms were sounding nationwide, affecting major cities and communities throughout the country.

The Foreign Ministry stated, "Sirens are ringing across all regions of Israel, sending millions into bomb shelters." 

Earlier, IDF spokesperson Daniel Hagari revealed that Washington had warned Israel about Iran’s preparations to launch missiles, with a strike expected in the near future. Hagari emphasized that any attack by Iran would have "severe consequences."

According to the New York Times, citing Israeli sources, the anticipated Iranian offensive will involve drones and ballistic missiles aimed at Israeli targets.
