Israel-Iran updates: Iran launches more missiles at Israel, sirens sound in Tel Aviv and Jerusalem
The IDF said it is currently striking "surface-to-surface missile sites."
Aerial attacks between Israel and Iran continued overnight into Monday, marking a fourth day of strikes following Israel's Friday attack. That surprise strike hit the heart of Iran's nuclear program, killing several nuclear scientists as well as high-ranking military leaders, according to Israeli officials.
The U.S. did not provide any military assistance or have any involvement in Israel's Friday strike, a U.S. official told ABC News. President Donald Trump told ABC News on Sunday, "It's possible we could get involved."

Trump rejected Israeli plan to kill Iran's supreme leader, per US officials
President Donald Trump rejected an Israeli plan in recent days to kill Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, two U.S. officials told ABC News.
The officials stated that Israel shared with the United States that they had a window to kill Iran's leader but the president was not on board with the plan.
It's unclear if Trump conveyed the message directly to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Reuters was the first to report the news.
Netanyahu was asked about the Reuters report in an interview on Sunday with Fox News.
“There's so many false reports of conversations that never happened and I'm not going to get into that. But I can tell you I think we do what we need to do, we’ll do what we need to do and the United States knows what is good for the United States and I'm just not going to get into it all that," Netanyahu stated.
The White House declined to comment on the report.
