Missiles and projectiles were seen in the skies over Jerusalem and Tel Aviv early on Sunday as Tehran unleashed a fresh attack on Israel which in turn launched an expanded assault on Iran.

Israeli citizens were ordered to head to bomb shelters on Friday night amid retaliatory missile strikes from Iran.

Residents awoke to mostly quiet streets in Tel Aviv after spending the night running back and forth to bomb shelters after Iran’s attacks on the coastal city. Some restaurants and cafes were closed, although those that remained open were full of people drinking coffee and eating pastries as normal.

At least three people were killed and scores were wounded during an aerial battle over Tel Aviv, as Iranian missiles rained down and Israeli rockets attempted to intercept them.

Missile alerts continue in Tel Aviv as five people are reported injured by falling debris, according to Israeli emergency officials. NBC News' Matt Bradley says the smell of dust is in the air as anxiety grips the city amid ongoing Iranian retaliation following Israel’s strike on nuclear facilities.

Video verified by CNN captures the dramatic moment a missile struck in vicinity of the Kirya, an area of Tel Aviv that’s home to an urban military base housing Israel’s Defense Forces.

Many of those confirmed dead were women and children, according to the authorities, although they have yet to publicly name all of the victims.
