​

All the major airlines have diverted or cancelled flights to the region, citing safety, and apologising to customers.

Virgin Atlantic said it had cancelled its VS400 service from London Heathrow to Dubai and warned that flights to the Maldives, India and Saudi Arabia might experience longer flight times due to re-routing.

British Airways has cancelled flights to Tel Aviv and Bahrain until Wednesday, and today's service to Amman is grounded too.

The BA123 service from Heathrow to Doha, which took off on time at 8pm last night, was also ordered to turn around a third of the way into the trip. A few hours later the 200 plus passengers found themselves back on the tarmac in London.

Wizz Air confirmed that it has suspended all flights to and from Israel, Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Amman with immediate effect up until and including next Saturday. Flights to and from Saudi Arabia will be cancelled until Tuesday.

Emirates has temporarily suspended its operations.

Lufthansa, Air India and Turkish Airlines are other carriers to have announced cancellations for the region.

Iran has successfully hit US military targets in Jordan, Iraq, Qatar, Bahrain, and UAE so far. maybe Kuwait and Saudi too, unclear.

The purpose of basing so many USA assets in Jordan was to "deflect" some of the long range missiles that Iran has for Israel, to land on Jordan instead. Tactically, Israel is using Jordanian people, and Americans as shields against Iranian attacks.

Wonder how the people of Jordan feel about this, from their "king" ..

And Iran itself made a major huge strategic mistake by not acquiring nuclear weapons in the first place.
 
Israeli and US media are total tight lipped on impacts in Israel ... nothing is coming out of Israel despite clips of smoke rising from distance. Their gag order points to Extreme level of sensitivity towards shattering of image of invincibility they have created over decades by giving rabid beatings to Arabs
 

'They hit hard': Videos show aftermath of strikes on Tehran​

By Merlyn Thomas and Paul Brown

Several verified videos from Tehran show large plumes of smoke rising above the capital.

One clip, filmed at a busy intersection, shows traffic slowing as drivers and pedestrians look up at the sky. In the footage, one person can be heard saying: "They hit it hard. Where did they hit? They’re saying it’s Khamenei’s residence."

We have located this video within a kilometre of Leadership House, the office of Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Hosseini Khamenei. It’s not clear from the video angle if it was a direct hit on the building.

Another verified photo from the same area shows thick, dark columns of smoke rising above residential buildings and small grocery shops. There are also reports of strikes elsewhere in the country.

BBC Verify is continuing to analyse and verify videos and pinpoint exactly which locations have been hit and what exactly has been targeted.

Israel said Iran launched 135 missiles at Israel so far

launches are ongoing

I haven't seen this news; if it's a real number, it seems to be a comprehensive attack, considering that the attacks against Qatar, Bahrain, the Emirates, Kuwait, and Saudi Arabia may use short-range missiles, which should be in greater quantities than MRBMs – the only missiles capable of reaching Jordan and Israel.
