‘A long night of attacks, with fears of more to come’


There has been a night of intense fighting between Israel and Iran, with the two sides trading fire and explosions heard in Tel Aviv, Jerusalem and Tehran.

Ballistic missiles hit parts of Israel, with three people killed and dozens injured, according to Israeli authorities.

Iran launched its attack in retaliation for Israeli strikes which targeted Iran’s nuclear facilities and military bases on Friday.

The country’s representative to the UN said 78 people were killed in Friday’s strikes and at least 320 injured, with the “overwhelming majority” civilians.

The BBC’s Hugo Bachega is in Jerusalem.
