Israel Strikes Targets in Western and Central Iran After Missile Fire

Israel said it hit several military targets after intercepting Iranian missiles, as schools closed and air defenses stopped at least 10 incoming rockets, officials said.

  • The Israel Defense Forces conducted airstrikes on military targets and a petrochemical complex in western and central Iran early Monday, retaliating for Iran's 11 ballistic missiles fired toward Israel on Sunday.
  • On Sunday, June 7, 2026, Iranian forces launched the missiles in retaliation for Israeli strikes on Beirut's Dahiyeh district, marking the first direct bombardment since the April 8 ceasefire.
  • President Donald Trump urged Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu not to retaliate, but Israel proceeded with strikes after Trump told Fox News the missile fire was "certainly not going to help negotiations."
  • Brent crude futures rose more than 3% to above $96 a barrel, while Iran's Revolutionary Guard warned responses will "encompass all American and Zionist targets throughout the region."
  • As the conflict reached its 100th day on Monday, the escalation threatens to derail U.S.-led mediation efforts, casting doubt on the fragile April ceasefire's future.
