Israel’s military accused Iran of using a type of weapon banned by more than 100 countries, though not by Iran or Israel. Experts said evidence offered support for the claim.
President Trump said he would decide within two weeks whether the United States would intervene militarily in the war against Iran, according to the White House press secretary.
Israel has a world-leading missile interception system but its bank of interceptors is finite.
The strike highlighted the risks to civilians in Israel and Iran after days of fighting between the two nations.
Israel has said it does not target Iranian civilians, but hundreds have died in the violence, among them a poet and her family, an equestrian and a graphic designer.
President Trump did not rule out U.S. military intervention on behalf of Israel, saying, “Nobody knows what I’m going to do.”
Iran’s leader vowed that his country would respond to any U.S. involvement in the war with Israel.
