Benjamin Netanyahu vowed to retaliate against Iran after it fired about 200 ballistic missiles at Israel, a major escalation that world powers fear could spiral into a Middle East-wide war.
Israel said most of the barrage of missiles on Tuesday evening was intercepted and reports indicated only one person, a Palestinian who was in the West Bank, was killed. Fighting, meanwhile, spread in southern Lebanon, where the Israeli army Wednesday suffered its first fatality since starting a ground operation this week.
