LIVE - "If we are attacked" by Iran, the US military will respond "with all its force," warns Donald Trump

The Israeli army says it has intercepted seven drones launched towards its territory

The Israeli army announced Sunday morning that it had intercepted seven drones launched towards its territory, without specifying their origin, after Iranian missile attacks during the night.

"In the past hour, seven drones launched towards Israeli territory were intercepted by the Israeli air force and navy," the army said in a statement, after air raid sirens sounded in the north of the country.

"At first I thought the missile had fallen on us": the report of Le Figaro's special correspondent in the suburbs of Tel Aviv

The missile struck there, in this quiet neighborhood of Rishon Letzion, a suburb south of Tel Aviv. At 5:30 a.m., Iran had just fired its fourth salvo of ballistic missiles of the night at Israel when it fell. This time, sirens weren't wailing in Jerusalem, but the blast of the bombardment shook houses there. During the night, about 200 missiles, "and hundreds of drones," were fired toward Israel, according to one officer. Most were intercepted, but not all.

Iran is targeting residential neighborhoods . The Israeli army has asked not to name the locations that were hit, but in Rishon Letzion, everyone knows the location. In the early morning, at the end of this grueling night of war, the sound of the explosion woke the entire city. More than a hundred meters from the site of the impact, the unmistakable sound of glass breaking under shoes can already be heard. All the windows have been blown out.
