NBC News' Matt Bradley reports from Israel where sirens rang out across Tel Aviv after missiles were reportedly launched from Iran. The order for residents to take cover was lifted about 15 minutes later.

Air raid sirens could be heard across the Israeli city of Tel Aviv in the early hours of Tuesday morning, as Iranian media reported that military forces had launched missiles at Israel.

In a statement aired on state television, the Guards said they "struck the military intelligence centre of the Zionist regime's army, Aman, and the Zionist regime's terrorist operations planning centre, the Mossad, in Tel Aviv", adding it was "currently on fire".

Understanding that while many tragedies are unavoidable, taking every possible precaution provided was not just a suggestion. They were a survival guide.
