Iran Strikes Israel With Ballistic Missiles in Retaliation for Assassinations

by Chris Menahan, Information Liberation:

Iran launched a salvo of ballistic missiles at Israel on Tuesday in retaliation for the assassinations of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh, Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah and IRGC general Abbas Nilforoushan.

The attack came one day after Iran’s moderate president Masoud Pezeshkian said he was lied to by US and European officials who promised him there would be a ceasefire if Iran declined to retaliate against Israel for their assassination of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran.
