You guys on the Hamas side are looking for any reason to celebrate.
Please can you tell what damage your 7 bombs caused? Hope you know that the military base is in a vast desert and it's most likely that your boys didn't hit any meaningful target.
No one was hurt that should tell you that your bombs were hitting the wrong places in the base.
The message was clear. We will tell we want to hit you and we will do it. We will hit you and it will take at least 6 countries to defend you.
Unlike you, we are not going to be killing civilians like the barbarians that you are.

The extent of damage to that airbase was not disclose by Israel

Iranian strikes caused "minor damage" to an Israeli base, army spokesman Daniel Hagari said Sunday.

You can confirm this using Google image search. Hope I've helped you.

Israel's message is simple, strong nations have strong friends while weak idiots like Iran get their top generals killed.
Oga I prefer the Israeli message

Iran launched over 180 kamikaze drones, 170 ballistic missiles, and 30 cruise missiles.

Nearly $2 billion were spent to fire them.

Who told you Iranian suicide bombs cost $2,000? Iranians are selling those drones at $196k to Russia.

😂😂😂😂

That was the price at which they sold to Russia, but their cost of production is about $20k. Iran spent less than $100m for the attack while Israel spent 5 billion Shekels

Israel wouldn't be able to do jackshit if Iran were to kill an IDF general outside the territory of Israel. They'd be forced to either do a symbolic retaliation like what Iran did or start a war that they'd certainly lose unless their Western lapdogs come to their aid. Ordinary Hezbollah has been penetrating their defenses for 6 months now

I don't really get it for some of you guys. These are indigenously produced drone but our own PhD holders are gulping laws of thermodynamics up and down without doing anything with them.

Give it to those Persians. Not everyone can stand up to the might of USA

You're right. Many people are just looking at the damage cause per the volume of deployment without considering the significance of the attack itself.

What Iran has done is "setting a precedent" for future occurrences. The strike entails that, from henceforth, any such direct attack by the IDF on Iranian targets would be met with a counter attack, something that has not been the case in time past. There is a reason the US and other allies are pressuring Israel not to retaliate. Iran has proved that it can slice through what has been known as the most densest air defense coverage in the world.

A second strike would be more devastating than this because Israel won't have the luxury of a 12-days notice to prepare and call in their allies to support their defense.

Write off Iran to your own peril.

Iran did not launch 170 ballistic missiles. Where did you get that from? cool

The drones are more easier to intercept considering they are slower, and flying from such a long distance with many borders to cross. So, it's a plausable argument that the drones were more of a distraction l to increase the chances of the cruise missiles and ballistic missiles, which came last in the volley. The speed at which those missiles struck their targets lend credence to the argument that Iran intentionally carried out the attack that way.

Whatever, I hope saner heads prevail.

Story.

Shaheed Kamikaze drone is sold to Russia at the rate of $196k per unit.

The funny thing is Israel is even the global leader in drone technology. Only Israel controls 60% of the ME market share.

Research how Israeli drones helped Azerbiajan defeat Russian-backed Armenia last year

Russia did not back Amenia in the Nargono-Karabahk war. Get your facts right. cool

And Shaheed drone is not even up to $25k talkless of $196k per unit. Guy, stop pulling facts from thin air. cool

We'll see how much Iran will spend to defend against Israeli F - 35s. Israel doesn't even have time to be wasting with drones or waste ballistic missiles because if ordinary Iran.

Let's see how many of 10 F-35s deployed at once Iran can defend against.

Iran launched over 170 ballistic missiles and 30+ cruise missiles.

None of those drones even crossed into Israeli territory?

Which distraction?

FYI, Israeli has a dedicated drone defense technology called Drone Some that can handle those drones.

If Israeli fires 100 ballistic missiles at Iran and deployed 20 F-35 simultaneously to attack few minutes the missiles reach Iran, how many do you think Iran can defend?

Only 10 F-35s are enough to deal with Iranian aerial capabilities.

What makes this fighter jets deadly is that by the time the air defense system can detect it, you have just 3 seconds to respond.

And it costs just $44k per hour to operate it.

Israeli variant of the jet is known as "Adir", which means the Mighty One in Hebrew.

I guess you now understand why Iran targeted the Nevatim air base

Iran cannot defend against the F-35,but they have the capacity to make Israel bleed if they mistakenly attack Iran with it.

All thanks to Iran for alerting Israel's western allies and inviting them to the theater with slow-moving drones. I'm sure you have not read that the vast majority of all of the missiles sent to Israel were intercepted by Jordan, Britain, and USA. UAE, France, and Saudi Arabia have also been rumored to have partucipated.

If you want to know how good Israel's defenses are, look at how they handle Hezbollah missiles. They do well against their cheap rockets but the ballistic missiles and drones rarely miss their marks in Israel. They hurt over 18 IDF members just yesterday with a Shahed.

By the way, it is cheaper for Israel to send missiles and drones than to use the F-35. The jet gulps thousanda of dollars per flight and to reach Iran, they'll have to refuel it with a tanker which is vulnerable to surface to air missiles. Again, you need to read more.
