Iran-Israel war has been going for a couple of years now. They had two rounds of missiles exchanges before. However, most of the fighting was done by Iranian proxies until now. Eventually Israel got tired of fighting proxies and decided to go for the head. Below is a link to Indian article from a year ago, so you could use a neutral source unaffected by the lastest developments
