Storyline:
Iranians took to the streets in cities across the country early Sunday to show their support for the country's unprecedented drone and missile attack on Israel.

Iran launched more than 200 drones, ballistic and cruise missiles toward Israel late on Saturday in response to Israel's attack on Iran's Damascus consulate on April 1 which killed seven Islamic Revolutionary Guards officers, including two top commanders.

Early Sunday, hundreds of people gathered in Tehran's Palestine Square, waving Iranian and Palestinian national flags and shouting anti-Israel slogans.

Demonstrators said that Israel's attack on Iran's diplomatic premises in Damascus was a violation of Iran's national sovereignty.

Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps said in two separate statements that it had launched "tens of missile and drones" and "successfully hit and destroyed" important military targets belonging to the Israeli army in the occupied Palestinian territories, in response to "numerous Israeli crimes."

It also warned that any threat by the United States and Israel from any country would receive a reciprocal and proportionate response from Iran.
