Iran has launched missiles into Israel, the Israeli military says.

Nearly 200 missiles were launched, according to Israeli army radio.

The attack comes following Israel’s campaign against the Hezbollah group in Lebanon.

Explosions were heard in Tel Aviv and near Jerusalem but so far there are no reports of any injured.
