This terrifying map shows the route Iran's strike force of 100 drones will take to hit Israel as the Middle East teeters on the edge of full-scale war.
Following the bombing of one of its embassies in Syria earlier this month, Iran has launched an assault against Israel by sending drones, cruise missiles and ballistic missiles towards Israeli targets.
Iran's army has said the drones will 'reach the occupied territories soon', having flown for nearly an hour.
Dramatic footage shows the moment Israel fires missiles to intercept the aerial bombardment, with explosions seen lighting up the sky.
It comes as the Ministry of Defence confirmed RAF jets have been moved to the Middle East to 'encourage de-escalation'.

Yemen-based Houthis have also claimed to have shot 'dozens' of rockets towards an IDF base in the north-east of Israel. It is not currently known if the Houthi attacks are linked to Iran's salvo.
The UK, among Israel's closest allies, and other nations have reportedly begun to support Israel by sending fighter jets to shoot down the drones and missiles. US officials added that their military also intercepted drones and missiles heading to Israel.
The IDF's spokesperson, Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari, said that the Iranian attack was 'a severe and dangerous escalation' in tensions, adding: 'Our defensive and offensive capabilities are at the highest level of readiness ahead of this large-scale attack from Iran.'
The IDF said: 'The air defense array is on high alert at the same time as the Air Force planes and Navy ships that are on a mission to protect the country's skies. The IDF is monitoring all targets.
'We ask the public to adhere to and follow the instructions of the Home Front Command and the official IDF announcements regarding the matter.'
Israel's allies have begun to send in military assets in to help Israel.

US Congressional sources say the amphibious war ship Bataan is leading a US naval task force in the Eastern Mediterranean. The Bataan has two support ships and together they have about 2,500 Marines onboard. The US also has several guided missile destroyers including the Carney in the area.
US bases in Iraq have been placed on full alert and will also attempt to shoot down missiles and drones aimed at Israel. In addition, the US has two destroyers and a Cruiser in the Red Sea that are fully armed with anti-missile weapons and they too are under orders to shoot down any Israeli bound missiles or drones.
But Iran has threatened the US if it gets involved in the spat, claiming that it is a conflict between Iran and Israel alone.
Iran's mission to the UN wrote on X: 'Conducted on the strength of Article 51 of the UN Charter pertaining to legitimate defense, Iran’s military action was in response to the Zionist regime’s aggression against our diplomatic premises in Damascus.
'The matter can be deemed concluded. However, should the Israeli regime make another mistake, Iran’s response will be considerably more severe. It is a conflict between Iran and the rogue Israeli regime, from which the U.S. MUST STAY AWAY!'
