Israel eases air raid warning, allows people to leave shelters Jerusalem, June 15 (AFP) Jun 15, 2025 The Israeli military said citizens could leave shelters after being told to take cover during a fresh barrage of Iranian missile attacks on Sunday. "Following the situational assessment, the Home Front Command published that it is now permitted to leave protected spaces in all areas across the country", the military said in a statement. The army had called on the population to take shelter after detecting missiles launched from Iran, and alert sirens had sounded in parts of the country. Israel launched an unprecedented attack on the Islamic republic Friday. Its strikes hit nuclear and military facilities, killed top commanders, nuclear scientists and dozens of civilians, and sought to destroy the country's defence capabilities. Iranian missile fire targeting Israel in response killed at least 10 people overnight, according to authorities, pushing the death toll up to 13 since Iran began its retaliatory strikes Friday, with 380 reported injured. Israeli attacks on Iran killed at least 128 people from Friday to Saturday, including children, Iranian media reported, citing the health ministry, with hundreds more wounded.
