STORYLINE:
Israel’s air defense intercepted missiles fired from Iran over Tel Aviv on Thursday morning as the two countries continued to exchange airstrikes and missiles.
On Wednesday, intense Israeli airstrikes targeted Iran’s capital a day after U.S. President Donald Trump demanded “unconditional surrender.”
A spokesman for Iran’s foreign ministry warned that any American intervention in the ongoing Israeli strikes targeting his country would spark “an all-out war" in the region.
Uncertainty continues to roil the region as Israel continues its air campaign aimed at Iran’s military and nuclear program.
Israel says its sweeping assault is necessary to prevent its adversary from getting any closer to building an atomic weapon.
A Washington-based Iranian human rights group said at least 639 people, including 263 civilians, have been killed in Iran and more than 1,300 wounded.
In retaliation, Iran has fired some 400 missiles and hundreds of drones, killing at least 24 people in Israel and wounding hundreds.
