Israel pounded Iran for a second day on Saturday and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said its campaign would intensify.
A day after Israel wiped out the top echelon of Iran’s military command with a surprise attack on its old foe, it appeared to have hit Iran’s oil and gas industry for the first time, with Iranian state media reporting a blaze at a gas field.
Iran also lobbed missiles at Israel causing damages and casualty in major cities.
Netanyahu said more strike will follow in the next coming days.
“We will hit every site and every target of the Ayatollahs’ regime, and what they have felt so far is nothing compared with what they will be handed in the coming days,” he said in a video message.
In Tehran, Iranian authorities said around 60 people, including 29 children, were killed in an attack on a housing complex, with more strikes reported across the country. Israel said it had attacked more than 150 targets.
Meanwhile, Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz threatened Saturday to “burn Tehran” if Iran continues launching missiles at Israel.
“The Iranian dictator is turning the citizens of Iran into hostages and creating a reality in which they, especially the residents of Tehran, will pay a heavy price for the criminal attack on Israeli civilians,” Katz claimed, referring to Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei.
“If Khamenei continues to fire missiles at the Israeli home front, Tehran will burn,” he warned.
