Defence Minister of Israel Katz on Saturday warned that "Tehran will burn" if Iran fired more missiles at Israel, as the arch foes traded fire for a second day.

"The Iranian dictator is turning the citizens of Iran into hostages and bringing about a reality in which they -- especially the residents of Tehran -- will pay a heavy price because of the criminal harm to Israeli civilians," Katz was quoted as saying in a statement.

"If (Ayatollah Ali) Khamenei continues to fire missiles toward the Israeli home front -- Tehran will burn."
