Iran launched multiple missile barrages at Israel on June 7, marking the first major attack since last week's fragile ceasefire and raising fears of renewed regional escalation. Air raid sirens sounded across parts of Israel as defense systems intercepted incoming missiles, though authorities reported no immediate casualties or significant damage. Iranian Supreme Leader adviser Mohsen Rezaei appeared to claim responsibility, describing the strikes as retaliation and warning of harsher responses if Israel continued military operations. The attack followed Israeli strikes on Beirut's southern suburbs targeting Hezbollah. Iran's state media warned attacks would continue unless Israel halted operations in Lebanon. The developments threaten ongoing US-backed diplomatic efforts aimed at securing a broader ceasefire.
