Israel has launched a new "comprehensive" wave of attacks against the Iranian regime in the capital, Tehran, the military said on Telegram late Friday evening, Swedish time.

The attack comes shortly after Israel reported that the country had been attacked by Iranian missiles.

Social media videos from Tehran show what appears to be an attack on the city's Mehrabad airport, The Times of Israel reports. The airport was reportedly transformed into "a giant fire and smoke bomb," according to eyewitness accounts to The New York Times.

In Saudi Arabia, the Ministry of Defense said it was subjected to a missile attack targeting a military base in the eastern part of the capital, Riyadh.

The airport in the Iraqi capital, Baghdad, was also attacked again by several drones and missiles, sources told AFP.
