Video released by Israel purports to show Netanyahu and senior military officials attacking Iran

Israel launched airstrikes early Saturday on what it said were military targets in Iran in retaliation for a ballistic missile attack on Oct. 1, officials said. There was initially no information about damage in the Islamic Republic. The attack, which Israel has been threatening for weeks, comes as the Middle East teeters on the brink of regional war, more than a year after an initial attack on Israel by the militant group Hamas.
