The U.S.
and Israel have announced an attack against Iran,
and Israel is preparing for retaliation from that country,
as NPR's Daniel Estrin reports from Tel Aviv.
President Trump and Israel's Defense Minister announced strikes on Iran.
A person briefed on the operation told NPR the Israeli strikes are being conducted jointly with the U.S.
after months of planning.
The person said the targets are Iranian government, military and intelligence sites,
and that the strikes are expected to last a few days.
Iranian government media are reporting rocket fire and blasts in parts of the capital Tehran.
Israel's defense minister announced this was a preemptive Israeli strike against Iran to remove threats to Israel.
He said missile and drone fire from Iran toward Israel was expected imminently.
Sirens wailed throughout Israel as a warning to prepare.
