UPDATE: Networks captured the harrowing scenes of explosions in the skies over Tel Aviv today, as Iran launched a missile attack on Israel.
Major news networks quickly switched to reporters in the region for ongoing coverage, while broadcast networks interrupted regular daytime programming for special reports.
White House National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan said that nearly 200 missiles were fired.
“This attack appears to have been defeated and ineffective,” he told reporters.
He said, “Obviously, this is a significant escalation by Iran, a significant event, and it is equally significant that we were able to step up with Israel and create a situation in which no one was killed in this attack on Israel.”
Sullivan said that they do not know of any deaths in Israel, but they were tracking the reported death of a Palestinian in Jericho in the West Bank.
“We do not know of any damage to aircraft or strategic military assets in Israel,” he said.
