Iran has carried out a major missile attack on Israel -- in retaliation, it says, to the killing of the leaders of Hezbollah and Hamas, as well as a senior commander of the Revolutionary Guard.
Israel says it intercepted most of the around 200 missiles, with the help of the United States.
World leaders are urging both sides to step back from the brink of a regional war.
But Israel has promised to respond, warning Iran will pay for what it describes as a 'big mistake'.
So, what would that response look like? And after nearly a year of war on Gaza and a campaign of air raids in Lebanon, is Israel able to fight on a third front?
