Tensions in the Middle East are on a knife's edge in the aftermath of Iran's barrage of missiles on Israel.

The Israeli defence force says there's been no reports of casualties and most of the around 180 projectiles were intercepted.

Iran has confirmed the attack and says it's targeting Israel in response to deaths of Hezbollah leader, Hassan Nasrallah.

Reuters Bureau Chief for Israel and Palestine James Mackenzie told Ryan Bridge it’s a big deal despite there having been an attack from Iran back in April.

He said that the first time there was limited damage and a sort of tacit agreement to let it slide, but with it happening again, the stakes are definitely raised.

They’ve already seen a really sharp uptick in essentially the beginning of a war in Israel.
