Videos posted online suggest that two air bases were targeted by multiple incoming missiles. The strike appears to have been more sophisticated than one earlier this year.

The Israeli military said it intercepted most of the missiles, but a number of projectiles successfully penetrated the country’s aerial defenses.

Iran launched dozens of missiles toward Israel on Tuesday in what it said was a response to the killing of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah and others – potentially taking the region closer to a wider conflict.
