I’d have ever so much more sympathy if they hadn’t just spent over a year genociding Palestine…

Those ballistic missiles really haul ass
Imagine 20+ months of this without bomb shelters with minimum to no food and with constant shelling and moving. Israel has made bombings and terrorism become normal for people in yemen, lebanon, syria and Iraq. Israel has made the lives of millions unsafe in the middleeast.
Germany, UK you created Israel government and the US enabled its colonization and genocide since day 1. Europe should take them back or stop them.
In 2025, the humans of the world nations still compete in every scientific advancement known to mankind, and mine every precious and rare material source, and employ every advancement and investment in programming, AI, engineering and design on the planet for intimidation and colonization launching metals into each other bodies, polluting and destroying the planet climate and resources, spreading pain and murder to each other for selfish gain. Now those maniacs are threatening with nuclear missiles. People who do everything in their power and utilize everything in the possession to bring humanity and the world down.
All because they want few Zionists to rule in aparthied and colonization and not give democracy to whom they see as inferior races of other humans instead of working and lifting each other. The world nations should stop this instead of heading toward WWIII as if humans cant learn history.

That's the most telling thing furute generations will look back upon this politicians that enabled such violence just to make some extra buck or a favor? Q
Well said mate.
Woah, that's nuts. I feel like most missiles don't reach target in Israel. Maybe that's cause most are aimed at Jerusalem and the Iron Dome though?
The slower ones frequently get intercepted, but every time I see one land it is those hypersonic fast ones.
I doubt Iran has any real hypersonic missiles, these are probably just balistic missiles.
You can definitely see a difference in speed between the missiles. Occasionally a slower missile lands as well.
I don't know if anyone has any real information but I'd think Iran would be shooting air bases and such. Targets that hurt Israel's ability to hurt Iran. Israel's command probably cares less about a residential building (full of people or empty) than a hangar with F35s.
Since Israel bombed the Iranian oil refinery and airport, Iran has started targeting Israeli power plants, ports and other infrastructure.
Iran are definitely targeting air bases and other militarized targets which are regions Israel has a media blackout on so we don't hear about them as much and only hear about impacts in Tel-Aviv which is a militarized "civilian" zone (human shields was always projection of their own policies).
Iran has spent decades building an arsenal of cheap drones that aren't really designed to hit targets, they are designed to financially cripple Israel by expending expensive iron dome charges.
From I've seen they certainly used that initially with mostly older, cheaper, and slower drones in the initial waves intentionally to bleed out the iron dome but have been changing their strategy as the "Iron Dome" is weakened and/or gaps are discovered.
With each wave they adjust their strategy. Interspersing more Hypersonics and layering the drones in different patterns/locations to more readily distract/avoid the iron dome.
From estimated ratios of 9 impacts out of/150 launched in the first few waves vs 9/50 in the more recent waves.
Though obviously Israel hides the damage/strikes through media blackouts on military sites so we can't know for sure how accurate these estimates are and we mainly only get reporting on impacts in Tel-Aviv or other militarized "civilian" zones.
Oh for sure, I'm just saying they don't even need to hit any targets and they'd still be winning long term. They are capable of much more, and Israel can't fight Iran without US.
Satanyahu is betting on forcing Trump to agree to war with Iran on his watch. Avoiding that is thankfully one of Trump's main priorities, hopefully they don't succeed in changing his calculus on it.
And they aren't able to and won't be able to maintain media blackout much longer, Iran has stated that they will keep going and will go harder, and we've already seen some seriously damaged neighborhoods. As long as Iran keeps it reasonable (and what is reasonable has changed tremendously in the last two years of genocide and western media going hard to defend and justify Israeli war crimes), I think Trump can tolerate way more destruction of Tel Aviv than netanyahu thought he would.
And the numbers are staggering. I forget exactly but those early retaliations for assassination last year that where laughed at expended something like 100s of millions of dollars.
israel has military infrastructure in the middle of residential areas.
I feel like attacking civilians also helps Israel's propaganda while not hurting it's capacity to continue escalating.
At this point who care. Many Western and arab countries protect israel regardless
Insert "this one sparks joy" meme?
This is fucked up. Israeli citizens do not have to die because of what the government did.
Perhaps you have missed the part where Israeli citizens have been openly saying that we need to wipe Iran, Palestine and multiple other countries off from the world map.
They want genocide; they will get some retaliation from who they are attacking. FAFO

Not like Iranian and Palestinian people haven't said anything similar. This issue is not black and white. There's a hundred of different shades of piss and shit. Everyone is right from their standpoint and everyone is wrong from other's standpoint.

Is this the strike from Friday or a new one?
According to the people who posted it, it is from today. It is certainly not the same barrage as we saw Friday, but it could be another barrage which was on Friday. Nothing is entirely certain right now, but I think it is from today.
That's the Friday one.
