Live: Israel ramps up strikes on Gaza after Iran attack

Israel vowed that it will continue "powerful strikes" across the Middle East as it assesses damage from Iran's missile attack. 

Israeli military spokesman Daniel Hagari said Israel's air force "continues to operate at full capacity, and tonight will also continue to strike powerfully in the Middle East".

He added that Israeli and US air defence systems operated effectively.

"There was close cooperation in detection and interception," he said. 

Iran targeted an Israeli gas platform off the coast of Gaza in its attack on Israel, according to Al-Araby Al-Jadeed. 

US-based energy company Chevron owns a stake in and operates the Tamar platform, which is roughly 13 miles off the coast of the Gaza Strip.

Reports did not suggest whether the platform was damaged. 

One Palestinian man has been reported killed during Iran's attack on Israel.

The man was killed when a projectile landed near the occupied West Bank city of Jericho.

Hussein Hamayel, the Palestinian governor of the area, confirmed his death, saying he was killed from falling shrapnel. The man was originally from Gaza.

Hamas released a statement praising Iran's attack on Israel. 

The Palestinian group thanked Iran for the attack, in what Tehran said was in retaliation for the killings of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh, Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah, and Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps commander Abbas Nilforoushan. 

Iraqi militias have threatened to target US forces in the country, if Iran is attacked in retaliation for today's missile strike on Israel.

Iraq is home to US troops and bases that have previously come under attack from armed groups supported by Iran. 

Iran informed the US of its missile attack on Israel 'shortly before' it began, a senior Iranian official told Reuters. 

The official said Iran used "diplomatic channels".

The US relies on Arab partner states to communicate with Iran. 

The warning suggests Iran tried to contain tensions, but seems to have been conducted under a shorter time frame than April, when Tehran also warned the US about its first-ever direct attack on Israel. 

Israel intercepted missiles over Syrian airspace during Iran's attack, Reuters reported, citing Syrian army sources. 

Israel has launched strikes and commando raids on Iranian assets in Syria in recent weeks. 

Israel reopened its airspace minutes after it assessed that Iran's attack had concluded. 

Israel has said that people could leave bomb shelters. 

Oil prices surged five percent with Brent crude trading at  $75.35 a barrel after Iran attacked Israel with roughly 200 missiles. 

Prices spiked earlier after the US warned that Iran was preparing to attack. 

Israel’s military said people can leave bomb shelters following Iran’s attack on Israel.

Daniel Hagari, the Israeli military spokesman, said that the military no longer expected “additional aerial threats from Iran”.

Explosions were heard in the Israeli-controlled Netzarim corridor inside the Gaza Strip as Iran attacked Israel with dozens of missiles, according to local reports.

It was not immediately clear if the explosions were caused by rockets falling in the corridor, which has been occupied by Israeli forces for nearly a year

Jordan and Iraq have closed their airspace following Iran's attack on Israel. 

Interceptions of missiles were reported over the skies of Jordan. 

Lufthansa Airlines said it was avoiding Iraqi, Iranian and Jordanian airspace until 2 October. 

Israel has closed the country's airspace following Iran's direct attack on the country.

Israel's military said at least 200 missiles had been fired at Israel in a phased attack. 

The Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps claimed responsibility for the attacks. 

"We attacked the heart of occupied lands. If the Zionist regime tries to respond to the Iranian operation it will face crushing responses," the IRGC said in a statement. 

Direct hits are being reported in Israel's Negev, Sharon and central Israel from Iran's attack, according to Haaretz. 

Israel's military said Iran's attack is still ongoing. 

Air raid sirens and explosions continue to sound in Tel Aviv and Jerusalem.
