00:28Footage filmed on Tuesday shows Iranian missiles passing over the skies of the Jordanian capital of Amman en route to targets in Israel.
Jordan’s Public Security Service called on citizens 'not to approach' any 'fallen objects', as the Jordanian Ministry of Interior announced it is "following up on the fall of several fragments of objects in different governorates, including the capital, Balqa, Zarqa, Madaba and Karak, which resulted in two minor injuries."
Tehran has said the attack is in response to ‘the massacres in Lebanon and Gaza’ and retaliation for the assassinations of Hezbollah Secretary General Hassan Nasrallah, Hamas political chief Ismael Haniyeh, and IRGC advisor in Lebanon Abbas Nilforoushan. The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said it had ‘targeted important military and security targets in the heart of the occupied territories by firing dozens of ballistic missiles’.
Israel closed its airspace and urged citizens to make their way to shelters, steps which were later lifted. Israeli media reported that the attack involved around 180 ballistic missiles, with two people in Tel Aviv reportedly lightly injured by shrapnel at the time of publication.
US Democratic presidential candidate Donald Trump and German Foreign Minister Annalina Berbock have since the attack, which the Pentagon has described as being of 'twice the scope' as Iran's April 13 attack.
On September 23, the IDF launched 'Operation Northern Arrows' with airstrikes against Hezbollah positions in southern Lebanon, the Bekaa Valley and Beirut's southern suburbs. This was followed by what Israel says is a 'limited and targeted' ground incursion into Lebanon on Tuesday morning.
Israel says the operation aims to enable tens of thousands of residents of northern Israel displaced by Hezbollah rocket attacks to return to their homes. The IDF strikes on the Hezbollah stronghold in the southern suburbs of Beirut last Friday resulted in the death of the Lebanese group's Secretary-General Hassan Nasrallah, Southern Front Commander Ali Karki and IRGC advisor in Lebanon Abbas Nilforoushan.
The Israeli operation has so far killed more than 1,100 people and injured over 6,000, while Hezbollah continued its rocket and missile attacks on northern Israel, including Haifa and Safed. Tensions escalated in mid-September after a mass series of explosions of wireless communications devices used by Hezbollah left dozens dead and thousands injured, as well as a strike on Beirut which killed senior members of the group's military leadership.
Iran claims that Hamas chief Ismail Haniyeh was assassinated by Israel in Tehran on July 31, although Tel Aviv has not accepted responsibility for the attack. Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei stated that Israel could expect ‘severe punishment’ for the killing.
The Hamas political leader was a key figure in ongoing talks regarding a ceasefire in Gaza, and his death sparked international outrage and huge protests across the Muslim world. Haniyeh, a founding member of Hamas in 1987, was elected head of the movement's reform and change list in the Palestinian legislative elections. In 2006, he became the Prime Minister of the Palestinian government following Hamas's election victory. After the division between Fatah and Hamas, he managed the Gaza Strip as Prime Minister and was later elected Head of the Hamas Political Bureau.
Earlier in the year, the IRGC launched hundreds of drones and missiles towards Israel on April 13, in Tehran’s first direct attack on the Jewish state, signalling a major escalation of tensions in the region. The IDF claimed that '99%' of the rockets and drones had been intercepted, while defence minister Yoav Gallant reported that 'very little damage was caused' by the attack.
The attack came as a response to the alleged Israeli airstrike on the Iranian consulate in Damascus on April 1, which killed at least seven members of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard (IRGC), including a senior Quds Force commander.
