Tel Aviv: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu marked his 75th birthday with a stern warning to Iran in a birthday message he delivered on Tuesday, as Tel Aviv continues its war against the terrorist group Hamas and faces mounting tensions with Iran and its backed Hezbollah.

In a video message, PM Netanyahu said, "Our people will repel the danger that threatens our existence."

Israel has already vowed retaliation after Iran launched a significant missile attack on Israel, firing nearly 200 ballistic missiles.

 While the Israeli military intercepted most of them, several missiles hit central and southern Israel.
