Fox News reporter Trey Yingst was standing on a balcony as short-range missiles behind him appeared to come closer before being intercepted by Israel's Iron Dome defense system. The footage of the incident preceded a night in which Israel and Iran traded fire, with explosions heard in Tel Aviv, Jerusalem and Tehran.

Israel struck Iran's state-run television station Monday during a live broadcast, forcing a reporter to run off camera following an explosion, after Iran fired a new wave of missiles at Israel that killed at least eight people.

The United States Ambassador to Israel, Mike Huckabee, confirmed on Monday that the US Embassy in Tel Aviv sustained minor damage following an Iranian missile strike near the area. He noted that no injuries were recorded among personnel in the American diplomatic building.
