TEL AVIV, March 12 (Xinhua) -- A wave of Iranian strikes forced many Israelis to spend Wednesday night in shelters, with some crowding into subway stations.
The attacks, in response to U.S.-Israeli strikes that killed more than 1,300 Iranians and damaged both military and civilian facilities, have disrupted daily life, causing significant property damage.
