Middle East crisis LIVE: Iran fires explosives drones at Israel, blasts and sirens heard in Jerusalem
Iran launched dozens of drones and missiles at Israel late on Saturday, an attack that may trigger a major escalation between the regional archenemies, with the U.S. pledging to back Israel.
Israel's military said more than 100 drones, which Iraqi security sources said were seen flying over the country from Iran, would take hours to reach their targets. Israeli Channel 12 said some had been shot down over Syria or Jordan.
Iran's state news agency cited a source saying its military had also launched a first wave of ballistic missiles against Israel.
