Israel Defense Forces say seven unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have been launched toward Israeli territory in the past hour.

They add that the drones were intercepted by Israel's Air Force and the Israeli Navy.

Footage shared by the IDF shows an explosion in the sky, which they say is the interception of a UAV.

Over the past hour, it has completed new strikes on "storage and missile launch infrastructure sites" in western Iran, the Israel Defense Forces says in a post on Telegram.

The post also includes what the IDF says is footage of the strikes. The footage has not been verified by the BBC.

Tensions between Iran and Israel have been escalating as the two countries have continued to launch attacks at each other throughout the night.

President Donald Trump says the US is not involved in the latest conflict between Israel and Iran.

"The U.S. had nothing to do with the attack on Iran, tonight," Trump has said in a post on Truth Social.

Iran has warned the US and its allies not to help Israel stop Tehran's retaliatory strikes.

"If we are attacked in any way, shape or form by Iran, the full strength and might of the U.S. Armed Forces will come down on you at levels never seen before," Trump adds. "However, we can easily get a deal done between Iran and Israel, and end this bloody conflict!!!"

As Israel and Iran launched new waves of attacks on each other late Saturday, here are the places that have been hit in Iran:

Iran's oil ministry said that Israeli strikes had targeted Shahran oil depot and a fuel tank in Tehran. The situation was under control at both of these sites, the ministry said.

The oil ministry also said that two major gas fields in the southern Bushehr province were attacked by Israel.

Israeli strikes also targeted the country's defence ministry in Tehran, slightly damaging one of the office buildings, as well as the ministry's Organization of Defensive Innovation and Research, according to Iranian media and the IDF.

These sites were targeted because of their association with Iran's nuclear weapons project, the IDF said.

On Saturday night, the IDF said Israel had also targeted an underground site in western Iran "used for storing and launching surface-to-surface missiles and cruise missiles", and that "the senior figures who visited it in the past were also eliminated".

For a second night, sirens sounded across Israel, as air defences tried to intercept Iranian missiles.

In Tamra in the north of the country - a mainly Palestinian town - a house partially collapsed after being hit.

Hours later, in a second wave of attacks, a building in the central city of Bat Yam was badly damaged. As morning broke, emergency teams were still searching for the missing.

In Iran, there were fresh Israeli airstrikes. The targets included the defence ministry headquarters in Tehran and sites that Israel says were linked to the country’s nuclear programme, including an oil depot, in what appeared to be the first attack on Iran’s energy infrastructure.

The recent military escalation between Iran and Israel did not come as a total surprise.

The two regional powers have been engaged in a years-long shadow war - attacking each other's assets without admitting responsibility.

Since the war in Gaza broke out, however, those attacks have stepped up. In September last year, Israel killed Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah, followed in October with the killing of Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar, considered to be the architect of the 7 October attacks. These two groups are Iran's closest proxies in the region.

Tehran, for its part, launched more than 180 missiles at Israel last October, most of which intercepted.

Israel reacted with their own airstrikes - but over recent months, the military operations had subsided.

Israel has repeatedly said Iran poses an existential threat for its survival - while Iran's supreme leader has used phrases such as "cancerous tumour" to describe Israel.

Israel is worried Iran is attempting to develop nuclear weapons - and it says the target of the current operation is its military infrastructure, including nuclear infrastructure sites.

Iran denies building nuclear weapons - but many Western countries are not convinced. On Thursday, the UN's nuclear watchdog found Iran in breach of its non-proliferation obligations.

Washington and Tehran were due to resume talks on Iran's nuclear programme on Sunday - but now, the talks have been cancelled, according to mediator Oman.

We have just got an update from Magen David Adom (MDA), Israel's emergency service: Four people have been confirmed dead at the site of a strike in central Israel.

Earlier, we reported three deaths in the area.

The four killed were a woman in her 60s, a woman in her 80s, a boy around 10 years old and a young girl.

Meanwhile, the MDA says it is treating 99 injured people - four of whom in serious condition.

Meanwhile, Israel has also launched strikes on Iran - though we have yet to get the casualty figures there. Iran has reportedly imposed widespread internet restrictions in the wake of the Israeli attacks.

Iran has launched strikes on central Israel, killing at least three people, according to Israel's emergency services.

These are the latest images of the aftermath in the Israeli cities of Bat Yam and Rehovot:

Over the last few hours we've been getting news about Iranian strikes against Israel. Just before that, the attack was in the opposite direction - with Israeli strikes deep inside Iran.

And the main target was Isfahan.

Iran's conversion plant in Isfahan, in central Iran, is one part of the country's enormous nuclear infrastructure, alongside mines and plants spread across other cities.

Also nearby is significant Iranian military infrastructure, including a large air base and a major missile production complex.

In April 2024, Israel damaged an air-defence system in Isfahan at an airfield.

Iran says the Isfahan facilities are used for purely peaceful purposes - but Israel and Western countries have long suspected Tehran of secretly using it to develop nuclear weapons.

This week's G7 summit in Canada will be dominated by war - only not one of those that the world leaders had expected.

High on the agenda had been Russia's war against Ukraine and Donald Trump's tariff war against America's trading partners.

Instead, the three-day gathering in the Rocky Mountains of Alberta will inevitably be focused on war in the Middle East.

The BBC's Diplomatic Correspondent James Landale has this report from Alberta.

More from the Iranian strike in the city of Bat Yam, in the central Tel Aviv Metropolitan Area.

A building appears to have been directly hit in the missile strike. We are seeing footage of first responders scrambling to rescue the wounded from the debris.

Israel's emergency services, the MDA, have confirmed that at least three people have been killed and around 100 injured in the attack.

Reports are trickling in of deaths from the fresh round of Iranian strikes on central and northern Israel. Here's where things stand now:

• Three people were killed - a 69-year-old woman, an 80-year-old woman and a 10-year-old child - and 100 injured in Bat Yam, a city within the Tel Aviv metropolitan area, Israel's emergency services Magen David Adom (MDA) said
• A neighbourhood in the northern city of Tamra has also been hit, killing at least five people, Israeli media reported

The situation on the ground remains very fluid. Please stay with us as we bring you the latest.

Three people have died and more than 100 injured in an Iranian strike on a building in Bat Yam, just south of Tel Aviv, according to Israeli emergency services.

The BBC has not been able to independently verify this.

As we've been reporting, explosions have been heard in parts of central and northern Israel, amid fresh strikes from Iran.

These are the latest images coming out of the city of Tamra, in the North District of Israel.

Prime Minister Keir Starmer's mantra is clear.

“The constant message is de-escalate,” he told us. He is neither ruling in nor out the prospect of British jets helping Israel - as happened in both April and October last year.

Iran has warned the UK, France and the US that were they to support Israel, their ships and bases in the region would be regarded as legitimate targets.

Starmer met the Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney here last night for talks on security and trade. Both will head later to the Canadian province of Alberta for the G7 Summit. The Middle East is uppermost on the agenda.

German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, French President Emmanuel Macron and US President Donald Trump are among those gathering there for three days of talks.

Iran has fired two waves of missiles into Israel overnight.

One strike killed at least five people when missiles hit a residential neighbourhood near Haifa in the north of country, according to multiple Israeli news outlets.

Another set of strikes near Tel Aviv killed a 60-year-old woman, according to the Israeli emergency service Magen David Adom (MDA). A further 20 people have been injured in the same area, as well as 24 people in the Judean Foothills, a spokesperson for the MDA added.

The BBC has not been able to independently verify these reports at this time.

It's just gone 04:00 in Israel and 04:30 in Iran and both countries have continued to exchange fire through the night.

For readers who are just tuning into our live coverage from Asia or elsewhere, here's the latest:

• The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) at 00:39 local time (10:39 BST) says it carried out air attacks on Tehran, targeting buildings linked to Iran's nuclear programme, including the defence ministry
• Iran carries out another round of strikes on Israel, with the country's state TV saying it has launched a "wide drone attack". Loud explosions are heard in central Israel
• Iran's oil ministry says Israeli strikes targeted the Shahran oil depot and a fuel tank in Tehran, adding that the situation is "under control"
• A video verified by the BBC also shows a fire burning near the Haifa oil refinery in Israel following tonight's salvo of missiles fired from Iran

• Earlier in the day, Iran’s state TV said "more than 100" missiles were launched at Israel, targeting Haifa and Tel Aviv
• Israel's emergency service says a woman in her 20s was killed in Western Galilee, and seven injured people have been taken to hospital

The Israel Defense Forces is now saying that residents in some parts of central and northern Israel are now "permitted to leave protected spaces".

Earlier, the IDF said that residents must enter protected spaces upon receiving alerts and remain there until further notice.

It also says that search and rescue forces have been deployed to areas across the country where there have been reports of fallen projectiles.

Israeli police have said that they are at the scene of a strike helping to recover the wounded, and that there appear to have been at least two direct hits.

The IDF has urged residents in Israel to follow the instructions of the Home Front Command.

In a statement it said, "At this time, the IAF is operating to intercept and strike where necessary to eliminate the threat. The defense is not hermetic, therefore, it is essential to continue following the instructions of the Home Front Command".
