Iran’s dangerous missile attack on Israel has sent shockwaves around the world. Amid this crisis, the US has stood by Israel in support. The conflict between Israel and Hezbollah has reached a critical point. Iran, angered by the killing of Hezbollah’s chief Hassan Nasrallah by Israel, has now launched a full-scale war.
In retaliation for Nasrallah’s death, Iran directly attacked Israel. The Iranian Defense Force (IDF) claims that Iran fired 400 ballistic missiles on Tuesday, targeting major cities like Tel Aviv and Jerusalem. Israel’s Iron Dome defense system was activated, and people were instructed to take shelter in bunkers.
The Israeli Defense Force (IDF) shared on social media that Iran launched multiple missiles at Jerusalem’s Old City, a sacred site for Muslims, Christians, and Jews. They even released a video of the attack.

Following the attack, the US has come to Israel’s defense. Reports indicate that President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris held two meetings with their national security team in the White House Situation Room. This new escalation between Iran and Israel, amid the ongoing conflict between Israel and Lebanon, has worsened the situation. Fears of a global war are growing, and “World War 3” is now trending on social media.
