Israeli army claims new missile attack from Iran

Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz ordered his army on Tuesday to stage intense strikes in the Iranian capital, Tehran, accusing Iran of violating a ceasefire between the two arch-foes.

“I instructed the IDF (army), in coordination with the Prime Minister, to continue the intense strike activity in Tehran to neutralize regime targets and terrorist infrastructure in Tehran, following yesterday's operation,” Katz said in a statement cited by Yedioth Ahronoth newspaper.

Katz claimed that he ordered the strikes “in light of the absolute violation of the ceasefire declared by the US President by Iran and the launching of missiles toward Israel.”

The army earlier said that air-raid sirens sounded in northern Israel on Tuesday after the detection of a new missile attack from Iran.

The alleged attack came shortly after Israel announced that it agreed to a bilateral ceasefire with Iran, based on a proposal made by US President Donald Trump.
