The clashes between Israel and pro-Palestine terrorist groups over territorial-control issues have now ignited a fresh wave of violence and low-scale war in the perennial battleground of the Middle East. The decision of Israel to evict illegal Palestinians from Sheikh Jarah in East Jerusalem have now given rise to fresh escalations of tensions between Israel and Palestine, resulting in large scale violence and attacks.

With the entry of the Islamic terror group Hamas, the clashes between the two sides have now taken an ugly turn. The terror group has resorted to unleashing a massive attack against Israel. The terror outfit Hamas has escalated its attack on Israeli civilians by launching hundreds of rockets.

More than 30 Israelis have been killed in the attack after Hamas launched indiscriminate rockets from the Gaza Strip. In response to the rocket attacks, the Israel Defence Forces have struck some 140 targets in the coastal enclave against Hamas. Israel has also stepped up its attacks on the Palestinian terror group Hamas inside Gaza Strip.

The Israel Defence Forces have carried also out airstrikes on targets in Gaza in response to continued attacks by Hamas against Israel. During the retaliatory strikes on Tuesday, several high-profile Hamas terrorists are said to have been killed. However, Hamas is no mood to stop their rocket attacks on Israel.

To counter the low-cost warfare initiated by Hamas, the Israel Defence Forces has now activated its state-of-art air defence system – ‘Iron Dome’ to protect its civilian population from the rocket attacks. Deploying its Iron Dome, the IDF has been successful in intercepting the continuous barrage of rockets targetting Tel Aviv and central Israel.
How does the system work?
The all-weather Iron Dome relies on a system of radar and analysis to determine whether an incoming rocket is a threat and takes the appropriate response to fire an interceptor to destroy the incoming rocket. The interceptor missiles intercept those rockets that are launched to target the civilian population inside Israel.

It is a three-central component consisting of interceptor batteries that shoot rockets out of the sky, a radar that tracks the rocket as it is fired across the border into Israel, and then advanced software that predicts the rocket’s trajectory.

The information picked by the system is then used to guide Tamir interceptor missiles, which are fired vertically either from mobile units or a static launch site to detonate the incoming rocket in the air, producing explosions in the sky.
How long has Israel been using it?
Iron Dome was first commissioned by the Israel Defence Forces in March 2011 and made its first successful intervention the subsequent month when it intercepted a Grad rocket fired from Gaza. Israel initiated its air-defence program after its war with Lebanon’s Hezbollah in 2006, when 4,000 rockets rained down on northern Israel, killing 44.

Every time Israel launches its Tamir missile to intercept rockets from Gaza, it incurs a cost of around $95,000 (Rs 70 lakhs). Due to the higher costs, Israel usually uses them only against rockets destined for residential areas, rather than those headed for open ground.

In fact, the cost of rebuilding infrastructure damaged by rockets is much cheaper than using the Iron Dome. However, with civilian lives in question, Israel has been continuously using the Iron Dome system to protect its population from rocket attacks. Reportedly, the US has partly-funded the system, pledging $429m (£303m) towards the programme.

Iron Dome – an effective air-defence system
The Iron Dome air defence system is considered one of the world’s most advanced, with a reported success rate of more than 90%.

According to experts, the commissioning of the Iron Dome has changed life for many Israelis during recent conflicts, as it now allows IDF to intercept rockets fired from Gaza with more certainty. Hence a sense of normality has returned in southern parts of the country, the region that receives a maximum number of rocket strikes. A decade later after its commissioning, the Iron Dome has thwarted thousands of rocket attacks launched by the Palestinian terrorists from Gaza.

However, some rockets fired from Gaza have made it through and resulted in deaths in Israel due to the sustained rocket launches by Hamas.

In addition to their land-based deployment, Israel Defence Forces are looking forward to deploying the Iron Dome batteries on its naval systems. The IDF has deployed the air-defence systems on its Sa’ar 6-class corvettes to protect off-shore gas platforms in conjunction with Israel’s Barak 8 missile system.

In addition, the Rafael Advanced Defense Systems and Israel Aerospace Industries are working on a multi-tiered missile defence system and long-range air defence systems with the integration of Arrow 2, Arrow 3, Iron Beam, Barak 8 and David’s Sling anti-missile systems.

While the Iron Dome protects civilian populations against short-range rockets fired by Hamas, usually Qassams and Katyushas, The Arrow system works to take out long-range missiles targeted against Israel. It is being developed especially to counter the Scud missiles from Syria and the Shihab missiles from Iran.

David’s Sling, currently under development, is designed to intercept medium range ballistic weapons and highly accurate missiles.

When my COUNTRY is still battling with BANDITS and UGM...

Respect to Israelites!

They should come and mentor we Biafrans. We have much affinity.

What would have been the fate of Israel without this Iron Dome Muslims in Iran and Palestine would have decimated them. But the reverse is the case now. And its a win for Israel

Na this type of News i dey like ...
Facts and Wonders...


The Isreali military is a tough one and in the mid east they stand tall above others, in Asia China and Japan takes the lead then Israel.

One thing i like about these nations is their silence to the rest of the world, them no dey put mouth for other people matter but if you carry trouble come then you are dead on arrival... While countries like Israel is busy building heavy defense systems the Arabs are busy building Abu Dhabi and Dubai that only one nuclear strike will end everything...

This life place your priorities right... Whoever wrote world war Z and mentioned the great wall surrounding Jerusalem, that person knows something that we don't

That righteousness of a guy need psychological help.

He's becoming a psychopath without realizing, this guy doesn't care if humanity is wiped out in a single day, to him it's God will and he's OK with it.

These are the kind of people you should be careful with.

No life is worth taken for the sake of some prophecy fulfillment.

HUMANITY first before RELIGION.

The moment we lost the humanity in us because of religion, then the purpose of religion itself is defeated.

Never thought I'd see the day a "christian" will be so elated that other human beings are being murdered all in the name of fulfilling a prophecy. I ask you agian, what is the difference between you and Boko Haram?

Technology... We'll get there soon

Isreal - sane country that values the life of every of its citizens and dont grant any terrorist amnesty.

Pls i need to experience the one they prophesied 7women will beg one man to marry them.

Technology is god

Allah is God.God is Allah.


Terrorism has no place in Islam

.
Quran 5 vs 32 “[w]hoever kills a soul
unless for a soul or for corruption
[done] in the land - it is as if he had
slain mankind entirely. And whoever
saves one - it is as if he had saved
mankind entirely.”



Do not let the actions of boko
haram or whatever terrorist sect
that you know prevent you from
seeking knowledge of Islam and
opening your heart towards been
Muslim.


Allah is The Truth.


The Quran forbids unjust killings.


Quran 6 vs 51 “And do not kill the
soul which Allah has forbidden [to
be killed] except by [legal] right.
This has He instructed you that you
may use reason."


Allah is the only Lord .He's the Lord
of the heavens and earth. Worship
Allah only .This is a reminder for all
that see this. Come to believe in
God and worship him only without
an intermediary. He sees and hears
everything. All Glory to Allah
