The Israeli military has warned that "all of Israel is under fire" after Tehran launched retaliatory strikes on Friday, following Israel's attacks on Iranian military and nuclear targets.

Iran confirmed Friday evening local time that it had fired "hundreds of various ballistic missiles" towards Israel, in what it called the "beginning" of its "crushing response."

"Moments ago, with the launch of hundreds of various ballistic missiles toward the occupied territories, the operation of decisive response to the savage attack of the Zionist regime has begun," Iran's official news agency, IRNA, reported.

Seven people were "lightly and moderately injured" following an Iranian strike that hit on the border of Tel Aviv and the city of Ramat Gan in Israel, according to the head of Israel's emergency services, Eli Bin.

Images and video released by Magen David Adom, Israel's affiliate of the Red Cross, showed civil defense workers surveying mangled cars and collapsed building facades in central Israel.

The Iranian barrage came after Israel launched a massive two-pronged attack on Iran early Friday morning local time, with strikes aimed at destroying Iranian nuclear sites and decapitating its military leadership in Tehran.

Israel's attack culminated years of threats and days of heightened speculation - but was executed without the blessing of Israel's closest ally: the United States. The Trump administration has stressed that Israel acted unilaterally and that Washington was "not involved."

Iran's retaliation Friday evening began just as a press briefing with Israel Defense Forces (IDF) officials was underway.

Effie Defrin, spokesperson for the IDF, was answering questions from journalists when an announcement was played over a speakerphone. The broadcast of the briefing was then cut short.

Defense systems were activated to intercept the missiles, according to a statement from the Israel Defense Forces, which instructed the public to seek shelter.
