Watch: Iranian state TV airs footage of ballistic missile launch targeting Israel amid escalating conflict

Amid rising tensions in the Middle East, Iranian state television has released dramatic footage showing the launch of ballistic missiles aimed at Israel, marking a significant and dangerous escalation in the ongoing military conflict between the two nations.

The video, aired late Friday night, shows a series of missile batteries firing into the night sky, reportedly from strategic military bases inside Iran. Loud booms, fiery trails, and chants of “Death to Israel” accompany the broadcast, which was aired with patriotic music and live commentary from state-aligned news anchors.

This launch comes in direct retaliation to Israel’s overnight airstrikes that targeted key nuclear infrastructure in Isfahan and Natanz, as well as military command centers. Iranian officials have confirmed the attack, calling it a “legitimate response to Zionist aggression.”

Public air raid alerts have since been triggered across Israel, with the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) confirming that its Iron Dome and David’s Sling air defense systems are currently intercepting incoming threats. No confirmed casualties or impact assessments have been shared yet.

The broadcast, intended as both a show of strength and a warning, underscores the dangerous trajectory of this conflict. Global observers are watching closely as the situation continues to unfold in real time.
