DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — Israel’s defense minister warned Saturday that “Tehran will burn” if Iran continues firing missiles, as the two countries traded blows a day after Israel launched a blistering surprise attack on Iranian nuclear and military sites, killing several top generals.

Three people have been killed in Israel, according to officials and local media, with both sides saying the strikes will continue.

Maj. Gen. Yadlin, who flew in the 1981 Osirak reactor strike, explains why Israel's current operation against Iran represents a complex, multi-week campaign.

The Lebanese militant group Hezbollah was long considered Iran’s first line of defense in case of a war with Israel

Israel says it has more attacks planned against Iran after a series of overnight strikes targeted Tehran’s nuclear program and shook global tensions. As Washington watches the fallout, President Donald Trump is continuing to push Tehran toward the negotiating table to come to a nuclear deal.

President Trump joked that Iranian officials killed in Israel's airstrike clearly did not die of an illness, warning that Iran should have heeded his warning.

U.S. stocks opened sharply lower and oil prices jumped after Israel launched airstrikes against Iran. Israel’s defense minister Israel Katz declared a special state of emergency following the attack.
