Israel and Iran’s feud continues to intensify

A major hospital in Israel’s south has sustained extensive damage from a wave of Iranian missiles.

Iran said it targeted a nearby technology park it claims was used by the Israeli military.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warned his military would strike all the nuclear facilities in Iran.

US President Donald Trump said he will allow two weeks for diplomacy to proceed before deciding whether to launch a strike in Iran.

A powerful Iran-backed militia in Iraq vowed to attack US military bases in the region if Trump decides to enter the conflict.

Netanyahu has not ruled out targeting Iran’s supreme leader, saying no one in Iran should have immunity after Israel’s defence minister said Ayatollah Ali Khamenei cannot be allowed to “continue to exist.”

More than 270 people have been injured across Israel in Iranian strikes on Thursday.

Meanwhile, Israel's defence minister says Iran's supreme leader "can no longer be allowed to exist" after a hospital was hit, but Tehran says its strike was aimed at a nearby military site.
