Iran: Allies were notified of the attack 72 hours in advance

Iran notified neighboring countries of retaliatory attacks against Israel 72 hours in advance, Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian said.

"About 72 hours before the start of our operations, we have informed our friends and neighbors in the region that Iran's response against Israel is clear, legitimate and irreversible," he said.

He also said that Iran has informed the United States that its attacks against Israel will be "limited" and for self-defense, during a meeting with foreign ambassadors.

Israel and its allies have shot down most of the nearly 300 drones and missiles launched overnight by Iran.

Huge explosions were heard in the early hours of Sunday morning in Israel, as the Israeli Air Force shot down incoming missiles and drones.

The US and British military are said to have intercepted a large number of missiles and drones yet to reach Israel.

Israeli authorities reported only minor damage to a military installation and said a seven-year-old girl was seriously injured after most of the rockets fell short of the ground.

Iran has said that the attacks are in response to an attack on the Iranian consulate in Syria on April 1, which killed several Iranians, including important military figures.

Israel has neither confirmed nor denied carrying out the attack.

Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi has warned Israel against any "reckless behavior" following the attack, saying Tehran's subsequent response will be "even stronger".

The Iranian military has claimed that its strikes have hit all targets and that the operation was carried out successfully.

Western and other governments have called for restraint./ Rel
