Iran鈥檚 strikes on Israel: Why now and what's next?

Netanyahu says Iran made a 'big mistake' and 'will pay for it'.

Following Iran鈥檚 missile attack on Israel, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has vowed retaliation. President Biden is telling the Israeli leadership that any attack on Iran鈥檚 nuclear facilities is off limits. So, how will Israel respond to the 180 missiles that Iran fired across its border? And what has the reaction been in Iran?

On this episode of the The Global Story, Azadeh Moshiri is joined by our Diplomatic correspondent Paul Adams and 大象传媒 Persian reporter Parham Ghobadi. They explore why Iran has chosen this moment to attack Israel and what Benjamin Netanyahu might do in response.
