Trump Briefed on Iranian Missile Strike as Israel Vows Retaliation
The attack targeted northern Israel, striking the areas of Haifa and Nazareth in Iran's first offensive action on Israeli territory since the April 8 ceasefire took effect. Air raid sirens sounded across multiple Israeli regions as missiles were detected incoming.
The strike came hours after an Israeli airstrike on Beirut, further inflaming an already volatile situation. Trump had previously expressed frustration with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, saying he was "perturbed" by the Israeli leader's stance of "constantly fighting" with Lebanon.
Israeli officials have since vowed to retaliate, a public broadcaster reported, raising fears of a dangerous new cycle of escalation across the region.
