The Israeli prime minister has called for regime change in Tehran as the two countries exchanged massive strikes Friday

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has urged Iranians to overthrow their government, as unprecedented hostilities erupted between the two countries.

Netanyahu made his appeal just hours after Israeli jets bombed nuclear and military sites across Iran, targeting a uranium enrichment facility in Natanz and killing several senior commanders and nuclear scientists. Iran responded with a barrage of kamikaze drones and ballistic missiles, several of which struck Tel Aviv.

"The time has come for you to unite around your flag and your historic legacy by standing up for your freedom from an evil and oppressive regime. It has never been weaker," Netanyahu said in a video address.

"This is your opportunity to stand up and let your voices be heard," he added.

Netanyahu reiterated that the aim of the strikes, dubbed Operation Rising Lion, was to eliminate "both the nuclear threat and the ballistic missile threat to Israel."

Iran condemned the attack as an act of aggression and vowed "severe punishment."
