Israeli security forces and first responders inspect the site of an Iranian strike that hit a residential neighbourhood in Petah Tikva on April 2, 2026. Iran on April 2 threatened "crushing" attacks on the United States and Israel, firing missiles at Tel Aviv after US President Donald Trump vowed to bomb the Islamic republic "back to the Stone Ages". The war, which was started more than a month ago by US-Israeli strikes on Iran, has spread throughout the Middle East and roiled the global economy, impacting hundreds of millions of people worldwide.
