Israel bombed nuclear targets in Iran on Thursday and an Iranian missile hit an Israeli hospital overnight, as the week-old air war escalated with no sign yet of an off-ramp.

Following the strike which damaged the Soroka hospital in Israel’s southern city of Beersheba, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Tehran’s “tyrants” would pay the “full price”.

His Defence Minister Israel Katz said the military had been instructed to intensify strikes on strategic-related targets in Tehran in order to eliminate the threat to Israel and destabilise the “Ayatollah regime”.

Netanyahu has said that Israel’s military attacks could result in the toppling of Iran’s leaders, and Israel would do whatever is necessary to remove the “existential threat” posed by Tehran.

US President Donald Trump, meanwhile, has kept the world guessing about whether Israel’s superpower ally would join it in airstrikes.
