Iran launched dozens of ballistic missiles toward Israel on Friday night in retaliation for Israel's surprise attack early Friday. Israel struck at the heart of the Iran's nuclear program, killing several nuclear scientists as well as high-ranking military leaders, according to Israeli officials.

The Israeli attack, which comes amid an unprecedented exchange of strikes between Israel and Ansar Allah's Axis of Resistance coalition ally, Iran, was reported by a number of Israeli outlets as well as Saudi Arabia's Al-Hadath network.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel presented Iran’s sophisticated ballistic missiles as a critical threat to Israel’s survival.

While this clip is fake, waves of Iranian missile attacks have targeted Israel since the latter launched a major attack on its arch regional rival. Just before dawn, sirens sounded once again, sending millions of people in Israel to seek shelter as another barrage of missiles was launched against the country by Iran.

Iranian media reported that Israel struck the South Pars Gas Field in what would be the first attack on an Iranian energy site.
