Le Bourget, France— Geopolitical tensions roiled the opening of the Paris Air Show on Monday as French authorities sealed off Israeli weapons industry booths amid theconflicts in Iran and Gaza, a move that Israel condemned as "outrageous."

The decision added drama to the major aerospace industry event, which was already under the shadow of last week's deadly crash ofAir India's Boeing 787 Dreamliner.

Black walls were installed around the stands of five Israeli defense firms at the trade fair in Le Bourget, an airfield on the outskirts of Paris.

The booths displayed "offensive weapons" that could beused in Gaza- in violation of agreements with Israeli authorities, a French government source told AFP.

The companies – Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI), Rafael, Uvision, Elbit and Aeronautics – make drones and guided bombs and missiles.

An Israeli exhibitor wrote a message in yellow chalk on one of the walls, saying the hidden defense systems "are protecting the state of Israel these days. The French government, in the name of discrimination is trying to hide them from you!"

French Prime Minister Francois Bayrou defended the decision during a Monday press conference at the air show.

"The French government's position was very simple: no offensive weapons at the arms exposition," he said. "Defensive weapons were perfectly acceptable."

Bayrou cited the ongoing conflict in Gaza as the rationale behind the ban.

"Given France's diplomatic choices, in particular the concern, or in any case, very great worries about Gaza, we could not not show that there was a certain distance, which meant that we did not think it acceptable that offensive weapons were in a show like that," said Bayrou. "And as these offensive weapons were not withdrawn [by the Israeli companies], we have temporarily, I hope, closed the stands."

At the last Paris Air Show in 2023, Israeli companies – including at least one that was subject to the closure of its stall on Monday -appear to have displayedoffensive weapons, including laser-guided bombs and rockets and attack drones.

Aviation news outletFlight Global reportedfrom the show on Monday that, despite Bayrou's description of a ban on displays of offensive weapons, "manufacturers from other countries are freely displaying a range of combat aircraft and munitions," which it included a display by the French-owned company Dassault Aviation featuring a "French air force Rafale fighter surrounded by a range of strike munitions."

Israeli President Isaac Herzog said he was shocked by the "outrageous" closure of the pavilions and said the situation should be "immediately corrected."

"Israeli companies have signed contracts with the organizers… it's like creating an Israeli ghetto," he said on French television channel LCI.

The Israeli defense ministry said in a statement that the "outrageous and unprecedented decision reeks of policy-driven and commercial considerations."

"The French are hiding behind supposedly political considerations to exclude Israeli offensive weapons from an international exhibition – weapons that compete with French industries," it said. "This is particularly striking given Israeli technologies' impressive and precise performance in Iran."

Israel launched surprise strikes on Iranian military and nuclear sites early on Friday, killing top commanders and scientists,prompting Tehran to hit back with a barrage of missiles.

Arkansas' Republican Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders was at the Paris show on Monday and, speaking with reporters, she called the French officials' decision "pretty absurd." Her father is Mike Huckabee, the current U.S. Ambassador to Israel and a staunch backer of the ongoing Israeli operations in Gaza.

The presence of Israeli firms at Le Bourget, though smaller than in the past, was already a source of tension before the start of the Paris Air Show, because of the conflict in Gaza.

A French court last week rejected a bid by NGOs to ban Israeli companies from Le Bourget over concerns about "international crimes."

Local lawmakers from the Seine-Saint-Denis department hosting the event were absent during Bayrou's visit to the opening of the air show in protest over the Israeli presence.

"Never has the world been so disrupted and destabilized," Bayrou said earlier at a roundtable event, urging nations to tackle challenges "together, not against each other."

The row over Israel cast a shadow over a trade fair that is usually dominated by displays of the aerospace industry's latest flying wonders, and big orders for plane makers Airbus and Boeing.

Airbus announced an order of 30 single-aisle A320neo jets and 10 A350F freighters by Saudi aircraft leasing firm AviLease. The European manufacturer also said Riyadh Air was buying 25 long-range, wide-body A350-1000 jets.

Boeing chief executive Kelly Ortberg last week cancelled plans to attend the biennial event, to focus on the investigation of the Air India crash.

"Our focus is on supporting our customers, rather than announcing orders at this air show," a Boeing spokeswoman told AFP on Monday.

The London-bound Dreamliner crashed shortly after take-off in the western Indian city of Ahmedabad, killing 241 passengers and crew and another 38 on the ground. One passenger survived.

Residents in Spain and several other popular destinations in Europe protested againstmass tourismSunday, saying a flood of summer visitors is driving up housing costs in their cities and pushing out locals.

Some of the protesters in Barcelona and on the Spanish island of Mallorca sprayed tourists with water guns.

The protests were part of the first coordinated effort by activists concerned with the ills of overtourism across southern Europe's top destinations. While several thousands rallied in Mallorca in the biggest gathering of the day, hundreds more gathered in other Spanish cities, as well as in Venice, Italy, and Portugal's capital, Lisbon.

"The squirt guns are to bother the tourists a bit," Andreu Martínez said in Barcelona with a chuckle after spritzing a couple seated at an outdoor café. "Barcelona has been handed to the tourists. This is a fight to give Barcelona back to its residents."

Martínez, a 42-year-old administrative assistant, is one of a growing number of residents who are convinced that tourism has gone too far in the city of 1.7 million people. Barcelona hosted 15.5 million visitors last year eager to see Antoni Gaudí's La Sagrada Familia basilica and the Las Ramblas promenade.

Martínez says his rent has risen over 30% as more apartments in his neighborhood are rented to tourists for short-term stays. He said there is a knock-on effect of traditional stores being replaced by businesses catering to tourists, like souvenir shops, burger joints and "bubble tea" spots.

"Our lives, as lifelong residents of Barcelona, are coming to an end," he said. "We are being pushed out systematically."

Around 5,000 people gathered in Palma, the capital of Mallorca, with some toting water guns as well and chanting "Everywhere you look, all you see are tourists." The tourists who were targeted by water blasts laughed it off. The Balearic island is a favorite for British and German sun-seekers. Housing costs have skyrocketed as homes are diverted to the short-term rental market.

Hundreds more marched in Granada, in southern Spain, and in the northern city of San Sebastián, as well as the island of Ibiza.

In Venice, a couple of dozen protesters unfurled a banner calling for a halt to new hotel beds in the lagoon city in front of two recently completed structures, one in the popular tourist destination's historic center where activists say the last resident, an elderly woman, was kicked out last year.

Protesters in Barcelona blew whistles and held up homemade signs saying "One more tourist, one less resident." They stuck stickers saying "Citizen Self-Defense," in Catalan, and "Tourist Go Home," in English, with a drawing of a water gun on the doors of hotels and hostels.

There was tension when the march stopped in front of a large hostel, where a group emptied their water guns at two workers positioned in the entrance. They also set off firecrackers next to the hostel and opened a can of pink smoke. One worker spat at the protesters as he slammed the hostel's doors.

American tourists Wanda and Bill Dorozenski were walking along Barcelona's main luxury shopping boulevard where the protest started. They received a squirt or two, but Wanda said it was actually refreshing given the 83 degree Fahrenheit weather.

"That's lovely, thank you sweetheart," she said to the squirter. "I am not going to complain. These people are feeling something to them that is very personal, and is perhaps destroying some areas (of the city)."

There were also many marchers with water guns who didn't fire at bystanders and instead solely used them to spray themselves to keep cool.

Cities across the world are struggling with how to cope with mass tourism and a boom in short-term rental platforms, like Airbnb, but perhaps nowhere has surging discontent been so evident as in Spain, whereprotesters in Barcelonafirst took to firing squirt guns at tourists during a protest last summer.

There has also been a confluence of the pro-housing and anti-tourism struggles in Spain, whose 48 million residents welcomed a record 94 million international visitors in 2024. When thousands marched through the streets of Spain's capital in April, some held homemade signs saying "Get Airbnb out of our neighborhoods."

Spanish authorities are striving to show they hear the public outcry while not hurting an industry that contributes 12% of gross domestic product.

Last month, Spain's governmentordered Airbnb to remove almost 66,000 holiday rentalsfrom the platform that it said had violated local rules.

Spain's Consumer Rights Minister Pablo Bustinduy told The Associated Press shortly after the crackdown on Airbnb that the tourism sector "cannot jeopardize the constitutional rights of the Spanish people," which enshrines their right to housing and well-being. Carlos Cuerpo, the economy minister, said in a separate interview that the government is aware it must tackle the unwanted side effects of mass tourism.

The boldest move was made by Barcelona's town hall, which stunned Airbnb and other services who help rent properties to tourists by announcing last year the elimination of all 10,000 short-term rental licenses in the city by 2028.

That sentiment was back in force on Sunday, where people held up signs saying "Your Airbnb was my home."

The short-term rental industry, for its part, believes it is being treated unfairly.

"I think a lot of our politicians have found an easy scapegoat to blame for the inefficiencies of their policies in terms of housing and tourism over the last 10, 15, 20 years," Airbnb's general director for Spain and Portugal, Jaime Rodríguez de Santiago, recently told the AP.

That argument either hasn't trickled down to the ordinary residents of Barcelona, or isn't resonating.

Txema Escorsa, a teacher in Barcelona, doesn't just oppose Airbnb in his home city, he has ceased to use it even when traveling elsewhere, out of principle.

"In the end, you realize that this is taking away housing from people," he said.

In another strategy, last year, Barcelona's leaders launched a program toreplace outdated infrastructure in public schoolsto address rising temperatures, paid for by a tax on tourists.

"The possibility of using these revenues, the tourism tax, for such a project is very important so that we can accept tourism in our city and the role that tourism has," Barcelona's Deputy Mayor Laia Bonet told CBS News at the time.

But some residents say the program misses the point.

"The government should be doing this without depending on tourism … it's public health," activist Agnes Rodriguez said. "If you're coming to Barcelona tonight, to Chicago or to New York, and you're staying in a tourist apartment where a family should be living, you are part of this city changing. You're affecting the life of people living there."

New Delhi —Investigators in India have found the second "black box"—the cockpit voice recorder—at the crash site ofAir India flight 171, the Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner that slammed into buildings in the western city of Ahmedabad on Thursday, killingall but oneof the 242 people on board and dozens more on the ground.

"The Flight Data Recorder (FDR) and Cockpit Voice Recorder (CVR) have been located and secured," an official from Prime Minister Narendra Modi's office said in a statement late on Sunday.

The hope is that the voice recorder will help investigators piece togetherwhat caused the plane to crashjust minutes after it took off from Ahmedabad Airport. The cockpit voice recorder captures audio from the cockpit, including conversations between pilots, alarms and ambient sounds.

A mayday call was sent by the flight captain, Sumeet Sabharwal, seconds after the London-bound plane left the runway in Ahmedabad.

Rescue workers and investigators recovered the other black box, the flight data recorder, on Friday. That recorder logs reams of data from the various systems on modern passenger jets, everything from altitude and speed to engine performance. Black boxes are designed to survive crashes and are considered vital to air accident investigators in determining the cause of disasters.

India's Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau (AAIB) is leading the probe into the Thursday crash of flight 171. They are being assisted by teams from the U.S. and the U.K. A team from the U.S. National Transportation Safety Board surveyed the crash site in Ahmedabad on Sunday. The Hindustan Times newspaper reported that representatives from the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration had also surveyed the crash site.

"The AAIB has launched a detailed investigation, and the U.S. National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) is conducting a parallel probe under international protocols since the aircraft is American-made," Prime Minister Modi's office said in a statement on Sunday.

India's government also established a high-level committee specifically to investigate the crash and to recommend any changes deemed necessary to standard operating procedures going forward. That committee held its first meeting Monday.

At least 33 people were killed on the ground as the Air India plane crashed into a building that housed students from a medical college next door.

As the investigations into one of the worst accidents in India's aviation history continued, the families of hundreds of victims were still waiting to have their loved ones' remains returned to them.

The plane went up in a massive ball of flames and much of the fuselage was reduced to rubble, making it difficult for authorities to retrieve and identify bodies. Officials have been working to match DNA samples from crash victims' remains and family members since late last week.

CBS News saw several families of victims at the Civil Hospital in Ahmedabad waiting for the bodies of their loved ones. The remains of at least 24 people had been handed over to their families as of Monday, authorities said.

"It's a long process and it will take its own time," Ahmedabad Police Commissioner G S Malik told CBS News on Monday. He said the final death toll would only be confirmed after all DNA testing was complete.

"Over 400 family members have reached Ahmedabad and are being assisted by our teams on the ground," Air India said in a statement on Sunday.

India's Directorate General of Civil Aviation told Air India to carrying out additional safety checks on all of its Boeing Dreamliner fleet last week.

Washington— At an economic summit of world leaders in Canada Monday, President Trump weighed in on the Israel-Iran conflict, telling reporters Iran would "like to talk, but they should have done that before."

He told reporters as he met with Group of Seven summit host Prime Minister Mark Carney that Iran has "to make a deal." The president confirmed that he's seen messages from Iran, through intermediaries indicating a wish to deescalate.

"They'd like to talk, but they should have done that before," Mr. Trump said. "I had 60 days, and they had 60 days. On the 61st day, I said, 'we don't have a deal.' They have to make a deal, and it's painful for both parties. But I'd say Iran is not winning this war, and they should talk, and they should talk immediately, before it's too late."

Asked what it would take for the U.S. military to get involved in the Iran situation, the president said, "I don't want to talk about that."

The summit, just outside of Calgary, comes as tensions betweenIsrael and Iranboil over, now in their fourth day of open conflict. A draft G7 statement on Iran has been floated, but Mr. Trump does not plan to sign the statement, U.S. officials said. One U.S. official said Mr. Trump will continue to work toward ensuring Iran cannot obtain a nuclear weapon. The draft statement discusses monitoring Iran, calls for both sides to protect civilians, and re-ups commitments to peace, according to the officials.

The meeting of world leaders is taking place as Mr. Trump's aides and top U.S. officials negotiate with these same allies overtariffs he's imposed. First up on Mr. Trump's schedule Monday was the meeting with Carney, whom Mr. Trump met last month at the White House. The summit will continue into Tuesday.

"The G7 is nothing without U.S. leadership, and your personal leadership, the leadership of the United States," Carney told Mr. Trump.

"We've developed a very good relationship, and we're going to be talking about trade and many other things," Mr. Trump responded.

"I'm a tariff person. I've always been a tariff person," the president said alongside Carney.

After meeting with U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer, Mr. Trump held up what he said was atrade agreementhe said he and Starmer had just signed. Starmer said the document implements an agreement on car and aerospace tariffs.

Mr. Trump also held a private, one-on-one meeting with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen on Monday, the White House said.

Mr. Trump's attitude toward some U.S. allies as well as thetariffshe's launched throughout the world has made some of the U.S. relationships more tense and has been an undercurrent of the conversations Mr. Trump has on Monday. Mr. Trump's musings toacquire Canada and Greenlandhave also strained the United States' relationship with Canada.

On Monday, Mr. Trump said he'd consider allowing China to join the group of world leaders and brought up Russian President Vladimir Putin's ouster from the group in 2014 after he invaded Ukraine and annexed Crimea.

"Putin speaks to me, he doesn't speak to anybody else," Mr. Trump said, as he stood next to Carney, who appeared to purse his lips and look away periodically as Mr. Trump spoke about Putin. "He doesn't want to talk, because he was very insulted when he got thrown out of the G8. As I would be, as you would be, as anybody would be. It was very insulting."

Carney told reporters his meeting with Mr. Trump was "fantastic."

"We will have open, frank discussions over the course of two days," Carney said in the first session with all seven leaders present. "We might not agree on absolutely every issue. But where we will cooperate, we will make an enormous difference for citizens and for the world, and bring the next era of prosperity, I hope, to the benefit of those we serve."

When Mr. Trumpmet with Carneyat the White House, the newly elected prime minister made it clear that Canada — contrary to Mr. Trump's public musings — is not for sale.

"As a real estate developer, you know, I'm a real estate developer at heart," Mr. Trump told reporters in the Oval Office. "When you get rid of that artificially drawn line … when you look at that beautiful formation when it's together, I'm a very artistic person."

Carney interjected, using language he believed Mr. Trump as a real estate developer would understand.

"As you know from real estate, there are some places that are never for sale," Carney said. "We're sitting in one right now, Buckingham Palace that you visited, as well. And having met with the owners of Canada over the course of the campaign the last several months, it's not for sale, it won't be for sale, ever. But the opportunity is in the partnership and what we can build together."

President Trump will cut short his trip to Canada for a meeting with world leaders and fly back to Washington late Monday, press secretary Karoline Leavitt said, citing "what's going on in the Middle East."

Mr. Trump arrived in Canada on Sunday for the annualG7 summit, and met with the leaders of Canada and the United Kingdom earlier Monday. But Leavitt said on X Monday night that the president would leave early, seeming to refer to the Israel-Iran conflict.

"Much was accomplished, but because of what's going on in the Middle East, President Trump will be leaving tonight after dinner with Heads of State," Leavitt wrote.

Asked on Monday why he's leaving the summit, Mr. Trump said, "I have to be back early for obvious reasons."

Leavitt said in a statement the president is returning to the capital to "attend to many important matters."

Secretary of State Marco Rubio is also heading back to Washington, a State Department spokesperson told CBS News.

The U.S. is not joining Israel's military offensive, U.S. officials told CBS News Monday evening. Despite reports that Mr. Trump asked the National Security Council and Situation Room to be readied upon his return to the White House, Cabinet members in the National Security Council are already on standby 24 hours a day — including since Israel's strikes on Iran began last week.

A spokesperson for Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney's office told CBS News the country "was informed of President Trump's departure through official channels prior to the White House's public announcement."

The Middle East situation has been the focus of much of the summit already. During Mr. Trump's meeting with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, the president said he had "spoken to everybody" regarding Israel and Iran.

"I've spoken to everybody. Israel is doing very well, as you probably noticed," the president said, adding, "I think a deal will be signed or something will happen, but I think a deal will be signed. I think Iran is foolish not to sign one."

After theWall Street Journal reportedMonday that Iran had sent messages to intermediaries indicating they want to de-escalate the conflict, Mr. Trump affirmed to reporters during his meeting with the Canadian prime minister that he was aware of the messages.

Asked by reporters what he'd heard from Iran, he replied, "They'd like to talk. But they should have done that before. I had 60 days and they had 60 days. And on the 61st day, I said, we don't have a deal. They have to make a deal." He went on to say, "It's painful for both parties, but I'd say Iran is not winning this war. And they should talk, and they should talk immediately before it's too late."

The president's sudden return to Washington comes as Israel and Irantrade airstrikes and missile attacksin the two foes' most intense fighting in decades.

Israel has carried out multiple rounds of airstrikes since late last week, saying it is targeting Iran's nuclear program, research scientists and top military officials. Iran has retaliated with missile and drone strikes on Israel.

On Monday, IsraelstruckIranian state television in the capital of Tehran, and urged hundreds of thousands of residents of central Tehran to evacuate. Mr. Trump wrote onTruth Social: "Everyone should immediately evacuate Tehran!"

The president and other American officials have said publiclyandprivatelythat the U.S. is not involved in Israel's strikes on Iran, though Israel did tell the U.S. about the operation in advance, and the U.S. has helped Israel intercept Iranian missiles. CBS News has previously reported that Mr. Trumprejected a planraised by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to kill Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

The Israeli leader was asked Monday in an interview with ABC News if he planned to target Khamenei.

"Look, we're doing what we need to do," he toldABC News' Jonathan Karl. Karl, noting that Mr. Trump had rejected the idea, told Netanyahu that the president feared that assassinating Iran's supreme leader would escalate the conflict.

"It's not going to escalate the conflict," Netanyahu contended. "It's going to end the conflict." He blamed Iran for "bringing us to the brink of nuclear war," and said that "in fact, what Israel is doing is preventing this, bringing an end to this, this aggression, and we can only do so by standing up to the forces of evil."

The Trump administration has also warned Iran against striking U.S. military bases in the region.

Meanwhile, Mr. Trump has urged Iran to sign a deal to limit the scope of its nuclear program, convening multiple rounds of talks that are now on hold. Iran has long denied any plans to build a nuclear weapon, though international watchdogs say it has increased its stockpile of highly enriched uranium in recent years. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has long been skeptical of striking a deal with Iran.

Tel Aviv, Israel— Israel attacked Iranian state television Monday and warned hundreds of thousands of people in the middle of Iran's capital, Tehran, to evacuate the city. The strike came after Iran fired another wave of missiles at Israel, which killed at least eight civilians, according to the Israeli military.

The developments came on the fourth day ofopen warfare between the regional foes, which has shown no signs of slowing down.

Israel's warning affected up to 330,000 people in a part of central Tehran that includes the country's state TV and police headquarters, as well as three large hospitals, including one owned by Iran's paramilitary Revolutionary Guard.

President Trumpwroteon his Truth Social platform Monday evening that Iran "should have signed the 'deal' I told them to sign," adding: "Everyone should immediately evacuate Tehran!"

"What a shame, and waste of human life. Simply stated, IRAN CAN NOT HAVE A NUCLEAR WEAPON," Mr. Trump wrote.

Mr. Trump addressed several questions about Iran earlier in the day while attending theG7 summitin Canada, saying he's "spoken with everybody" and thinks Iran "basically is at the negotiating table. They want to make a deal." A draft G7 statement on Iran has been floated, but Mr. Trump does not plan to sign the statement, U.S. officials said. Mr. Trump will continue to work toward ensuring that Iran cannot obtain a nuclear weapon, one official said.

Press secretary Karoline Leavitt on Monday night said Mr. Trumpwill cut short his trip to Canadaand fly back to Washington, D.C., late Monday, citing "what's going on in the Middle East."

The president had previously said Iranian leaders would "like to talk," but they had already had 60 days to reach an agreement on their nuclear ambitions and failed to do so before an Israeli aerial assault began four days ago. Meanwhile, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said his country's strikes have set Iran's nuclear program back a "very, very long time."

An hour after Israel's warning on Monday, the Islamic Republic of Iran News Network, an Iranian state-run television network, stopped a live broadcast when an explosion occurred. Anchor Sahar Emami was seen rushing off camera as the screen behind her cuts out and debris and smoke fill the studio. The broadcast quickly switched to prerecorded programs.

Soon, Emami came back live from another studio and was seen speaking with another anchor. She said that "bodies of reporters" were at the site of the initial broadcast, and images showed smoke and flames in the sky.

CBS News' Seyed Bathaei in Tehran reported hearing antiaircraft weapons firing on Monday. He said many people were trying to flee the city, causing long traffic jams on major thoroughfares. He said state TV remained on the air, but the network's headquarters appeared to be on fire. Bathaei estimated that as many as 80% to 90% of businesses in the capital were closed on Monday.

Israel's defense minister took credit for the attack on the television studio.

Iran announced it had launched some 100 missiles and vowed further retaliation forIsrael's sweeping attacks on its military and nuclear infrastructure, which Tehran said have killed at least 224 people in the country since Friday.

Near the American Consulate in Tel Aviv, one missile caused minor damage, U.S. Ambassador Mike Huckabeesaid Monday in a poston social media. He said no American personnel were injured. Later in the day, the State Departmentraised its travel advisoryfor Israel to the highest level and warned U.S. citizens not to travel to the country. House Speaker Mike Johnsonannouncedhe was postponing a planned address to Israel's parliament in Jerusalem later this month.

Early Monday evening, Defense Secretary Pete Hegsethwrote on Xthat he "directed the deployment of additional capabilities to the United States Central Command Area of Responsibility" over the weekend, adding: "Protecting U.S. forces is our top priority and these deployments are intended to enhance our defensive posture in the region."

The U.S. is sending multiple refueling aircraft to preposition in Europe to be closer to the Middle East as part of providing options for the administration, U.S. officials told CBS News.

The aircraft could support defensive operations by keeping fighter jets that are used to intercept incoming drones aloft, but those same refueling aircraft could support offensive operations if Iran were to strike U.S. troop locations in the Middle East.

The USS Nimitz carrier strike group is also headed to the Middle East, according to U.S. officials, which, when it arrives, would give the U.S. two carrier strike groups in range of Iran.

Israel said Iranian missiles had killed a total of 24 people and wounded some 500 others by Monday morning, and the Israel Defense Forces accused Tehran of deliberately targeting civilians with its strikes.

"We are hitting military targets and capabilities designed to destroy the State of Israel, and they are firing at population centers with the aim of hitting civilians," an IDF spokesperson said Monday morning.

In response, "50 fighter jets and aircraft carried out strikes and destroyed over 120 surface-to-surface missile launchers" in Iran, IDF spokesman Big. Gen. Effie Defrin said in a televised statement on Monday. He said Iran's Quds Force, an elite arm of its Revolutionary Guard that conducts military and intelligence operations outside Iran, was the primary target, and that the strikes had destroyed "one-third of the surface-to-surface missile launchers possessed by the Iranian regime."

Defrin also said Israel's air force had established "full aerial superiority" over the Iranian capital, Tehran.

Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz warned Monday that Tehran's residents would "pay the price" for Iranian strikes on Israeli civilians, according to the French news agency AFP.

The fighting led to the cancellation of talks on Iran's nuclear program slated for Sunday between the U.S. and Iran.

Separately, three U.S. officials told CBS News on Sunday that Mr.Trump had opposed a recent Israeli planto kill Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

The Israelis had the opportunity to assassinate Khamenei, and Mr. Trump conveyed to Netanyahu that it wasn't a good idea, one U.S. official told CBS News. They said the conversation between Netanyahu and Mr. Trump came since Israel launched itsmassive attack on Iran last week.

Netanyahu's office has rejected the assertion as fake.

Meanwhile, the U.S. State Department had issued a directive to all American embassies and consular posts to, "at their discretion," relay or reiterate to their host governments that the United States "is not involved in Israel's unilateral action against targets in Iran and did not provide tanker support,"a source familiar with its contents told CBS News.

Powerful explosions, likely from Israel's defense systems intercepting Iranian missiles, rocked Tel Aviv shortly before dawn on Monday, sending plumes of black smoke into the sky over the coastal city.

Authorities in the central Israeli city of Petah Tikva said Iranian missiles had hit a residential building there, charring concrete walls, shattering windows and ripping the walls off multiple apartments.

The Israeli Magen David Adom emergency service reported that two women and two men — all in their 70s — and one other person were killed in the wave of missile attacks that struck four sites in central Israel.

"We clearly see that our civilians are being targeted," Israeli police spokesman Dean Elsdunne said outside the bombed-out building in Petah Tikva. "And this is just one scene. We have other sites like this near the coast, in the south."

Petah Tikva resident Yoram Suki rushed with his family to a shelter after hearing an air raid alert and emerged after it was over to find his apartment destroyed.

"Thank God we were OK," the 60-year-old said.

Despite losing his home, he urged Netanyahu to keep up the attacks on Iran.

"It's totally worth it," he said. "This is for the sake of our children and grandchildren."

In addition to those killed, the MDA said paramedics had evacuated another 92 wounded people to hospitals, including a 30-year-old woman in serious condition, while rescuers were still searching for residents trapped beneath the rubble of their homes.

"When we arrived at the scene of the rocket strike, we saw massive destruction," said Dr. Gal Rosen, a paramedic with MDA who said he had rescued a 4-day-old baby as fires blazed from the building.

During an earlier barrage of Iranian missiles on central Israel on Sunday, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said Iran would stop its strikes if Israel did the same.

But after a day of intense Israeli aerial attacks that extended to targets beyond military installations to hit oil refineries and government buildings, the Revolutionary Guard struck a hard line on Monday, vowing that further rounds of strikes would be "more forceful, severe, precise and destructive than previous ones."

Health authorities also reported that 1,277 were wounded in Iran, without distinguishing between military officials and civilians.

Rights groups, including the Washington-based Iranian advocacy group Human Rights Activists, have suggested the Iranian government's death toll is a significant undercount. Human Rights Activists says it has documented more than 400 people killed, among them 197 civilians.

Israel argues that its assault on Iran's top military leaders, uranium enrichment sites and nuclear scientists was necessary to stop Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon, which Netanyahu claimed Iran was "racing" toward.

Iran has always insisted its nuclear program is peaceful, and the U.S. and others have assessed that Tehran has not pursued a nuclear weapon since 2003.

But Iran has enriched ever-larger stockpiles of uranium to near weapons-grade levels in recent years and was believed to have the capacity to develop multiple weapons within months if it chose to do so.
