Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) confirmed that it fired several coordinated missile barrages toward Israel, describing the assault as the “beginning of a full week of continuous strikes.” Israeli defense sources estimate at least 10 ballistic missiles were intercepted across three waves, with air defense systems activating across northern regions.

US President Donald Trump urged Iran to “get back to the table,” while also expressing dissatisfaction with Israeli strikes in Beirut that preceded the missile exchange while reports suggest Trump has pushed Israeli leadership, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, to avoid immediate retaliation to preserve negotiation channels.
