Israel's Military Says 99% Of Weapons Fired By Iran Intercepted by joelbooks: 7:59am On Apr 14
The Israeli military said Sunday that “99%” of the more than 300 projectiles fired at Israel by Iran were intercepted.

Only “a small number” of ballistic missiles reached the country's territory, Israel Defense Forces spokesperson Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari said.

The remaining ballistic missiles, all cruise missiles and all drones were intercepted before reaching Israeli territory, he added.
Around 170 drones, more than 30 cruise missiles and more than 120 ballistic missiles were launched at Israel by Iran, he said, the vast majority intercepted by the Israeli Air Force and Israeli “partners.”

The ballistic missiles that did reach Israel fell on the Nevatim Airbase in southern Israel, Hagari said, adding that they caused only light structural damage. The base was functioning and continuing its operations following the attack, with planes continuing to use the base, he added.

Some of the weapons launched at Israel were fired from Iraq and Yemen, Hagari added.
Remember: US President Joe Biden told Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in a phone call that his country should consider tonight a win because the current US assessment is that Iran’s attacks had been largely unsuccessful and demonstrated Israel’s superior military capability, a senior administration official told CNN.

US forces were also involved in defending Israel, intercepting more than 70 one-way attack drones and at least three ballistic missiles, according to two US officials familiar with the situation.

It is a RETALIATORY STRIKE you this genocide loving c.unt, over the bombing of Iranian embassy in Damascus.

The Iranians are no coward, they boldly and legitimately strike targets within Israel unlike Israel that bombed iranian embassy in Damascus. Big difference Yo!

Mind you this is just a warning strike..

The war proper will start should your zionist state of Israel decides to hit targets in Iran.

Iran is not ready to take on Israel.

They don’t want to be perceived as weak and had to do something

Yes, Israel killed their top military commander on iran soil, only to respond by firing thousands of drones into Israel territory something they knew Israel will definitely intercept. Now, iran has put it out that they are no longer fighting.
This is nothing but cowardice.

he is not deceiving himself but saying the obvious...no human soul died after the launch of drones and missiles.

Let me tell you dear...Iran don't want to appear weak to the world and Arab nation..so they had to put that out ...they know what they are doing ..Iran herself are also very strong military wise...but they know that in that region is Israel first before Iran or Saudi Arabia.

Good


Israel should do nothing

This is a huge reputational loss for Israel. It's time for Netanyahu to go.

The attack on Iranian Consulate shouldn't have happened. It's a violation of international law.

Now, the consequences are ballistic missiles launched from Iran hitting Israel. What if it was Nuclear charged
Even the US are trying to save face by calling the interception a huge success because they don't want Israel to react and cause a regional war.
The US is even saying it will not be party to any aggression towards Iran from Israel.

If Israel doesn't react it will lose face and reputation loss.....They need an action to save face without escalating but what will it be

That's your own assumption and it's very delusional. The same Israel that refused to adhere to the UN security Council just started begging for the council to hold a security meeting on Iran's aggression . Which is why I said earlier " continue dey deceive yourself "

For a ballistic missile fired from Iran to hit Israel is already a big problem especially with Iran development of hypersonic missiles

What if that missile was carrying a nuclear warhead.

The middle east is going to be hot in coming years

Lying is always required!!!! It's also very funny since the Israeli press indicates minor damage, specifying that 99% of the missiles and drones were intercepted. One might even believe to hear them that the missiles participated in the renovation of the neighborhoods where they fell...

In short, always the truth, especially when observing the few videos circulating about what they call “minor damage”… The military base in the Negev is on fire and there are many explosions!
Reporters on site confirmed that the Iron Dome was incapable of stopping the missiles in the face of saturation.

Reports from terrorists sympathizers like you.

Iran just purposely wasted over 300 missiles to make the Arab world happy.

They only succeeded in wasting over 250 drones, cruise and ballistic missiles on nothing. No significant targets hit, no casualties and 7 top IRGC Generals gone with the wind... Just like that Nobody takes Iran serious. Everybody knew yesterday's charade was a face-saving stunt aimed at inflicting no damages.

Don’t believe the Zionists for one bit when they say minimal damage was done to their bases (Negev and Mount Hermon). Remember when Ein Al Assad was hit by Iranian missiles and the US claimed nothing happend “all is well”? It was only after a week when they allowed reporters inside that we got to see the damage impacts.

Lying is in their blood, they are lying bastards.
