Live from Tel Aviv on Saturday February 28 as the United States and Israel announced joint strikes against Iran.

Israel has declared a nationwide state of emergency, suspending all non-essential educational activities, public gathering and workplaces in anticipation of potential Iranian retaliation.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the United States and Israel have launched a joint operation to counter what he described as 'existential threats' posed by Iran's nuclear and missile programs, with coordinated strikes currently targeting sites across Iran.

The strikes come amid US-Iran diplomatic talks aimed at limiting Iran's nuclear program and preventing further escalation. Negotiations were scheduled to resume next week.
