A total of 40 people are being treated in Israeli hospitals after the recent air strikes from Iran.

Two are in critical condition.

Ichilov Hospital in Tel Aviv is treating 18 patients.

Beilinson Hospital in Petah Tikva is treating seven people, including one critical patient.

Sheba Hospital in Ramat Gan is treating 15 patients, including the other critical patients.

The injuries are varied and include shrapnel damage, smoke inhalation and shock.

Israel Defense Forces spokesperson Avichay Adraee says Iran launched less than 100 missiles in two waves towards Israel.

In a post on X, he writes most of the missiles were intercepted or failed to reach their targets.

He adds there are a limited number of buildings that were hit, some due to shrapnel from interception operations.

Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says that Israel's fight is not with the Iranian people but against Iran's leadership.

He listed Iranian targets that have been hit by Israel, including military and nuclear sites, and added that more is on the way.

He says the regime does not know what hit them or what will hit them. He tells the Iranian people that this is their opportunity to stand up and let their voices be heard.

He reiterates that Israel's objective is to thwart what he describes as Iran's nuclear and missile "threat".

The Israel PM says that as they achieve their objective, they are also clearing the path for them to achieve their freedom.

Netanyahu adds that the time has come for the Iranian people to unite around its flag and its historic legacy by standing up for their freedom from the evil and oppressive regime.
