It's just gone 11 in the evening in Jerusalem.
It's just gone 11.30 in the evening in Tehran.
And that means in wide locations across Israel and Iran,
air raid sirens have been sounding.

We'll join our correspondent live in Jerusalem in a moment.
It's been the third day of this round of conflict between Israel and Iran,
