Hundreds of Rockets fired towards Israel
Hundreds of Rockets fired towards Israel
Some 400 rockets were launched onto Israel on Tuesday night by Iran, The Jerusalem Post understands, following rocket alert sirens that blared throughout the country.
So far, 4 people were reportedly killed during the aerial attacks, and there have been two direct hits, one of which was in Tel Aviv.
Iran launched the wave of attacks after the IDF announced on Monday night that it had begun limited ground operations in Lebanon.
Good job Israel, you've really managed to piss off everyone in the region.
I mean... that happened in the late 40s but especially peaked in the 60s.
especially peaked in the 60s
...so far.
In fairness that happened in 1948 and hasn't really let up since.
@catloaf@lemm.ee Yeah, because before 7th of October IRGC and Israel had perfect relationship

Alas, it seems there are no winners anymore. Just sides. I don't suspect this will end well for Iran in the long term.
Am I the only one who thinks of this as a political play between Israel and Iran?
When Israel hits a target, I don't hear about it till I see the damages and the casualties.
When Iran tries to hit a target, I hear about it several hours when it's in the air and it still did not hit anything, and the next day I hear that every country around Israel had shot some of the missiles fired, and Israel themselves shot down the rest.
It feels like Iran just wants to demonstrate that they have the expertise to shoot missiles, without actually shooting anything that can cause a real damage.
If they have fired hundreds of missiles, it's clearly an attempt to overwhelm Israeli air defense.
Of course assuming the reporting we receive is true.According to this article:
(They reference IDF, so they might be wrong, but assuming they are correct)
Iran shot 180 missiles, and Israel intercepted most of them.
So far, there is official information about two injured citizens in Tel Aviv.
I don't think this attack was significant in any means.
Wait, you mean you don't telegraph your "surprise attack" a day in advance to everyone?
We have till January next year before a full scale war in the middle east. Till then Israel will continue with genocide and it's belligerence. And other countries will keep on posing.
It won't be war. It will be a series of small scale incursions. The word 'war' is bad for business.
I'm scared for all the citizens involved in this. I really hope this will end soon, but I don't think it will...

Calling this a genocidal propaganda rag would be an insult to rags

The only reported fatality was a Palestinian man who was killed when a rocket hit the West Bank town of Jericho.
Religion: Just be nice to other people.
People: Well, here's why that means I have to kill other people.

Good.
Can you even imagine the bloodshed if nobody in the region could hit them back?
