Iranian missiles rain down on Israel (capture X)

Iran fired around 200 missiles towards Israel on Tuesday evening, targeting military bases and the Mossad. This operation, dubbed “Honest Promise 2”, marks a significant escalation of tensions in the Middle East.

In an unprecedented show of force, Iran launched a massive missile attack on Israel, using hypersonic missiles for the first time. The action, aimed at avenging the deaths of senior Hezbollah and Hamas officials, tested both Israeli and American defenses.

Israeli and international reaction

Israel claims to have intercepted most of the missiles, limiting damage to “very few casualties”. The United States lent its support to Israel, with American ships also intercepting missiles. President Joe Biden reaffirmed his country’s “full support” for Israel.
However, many accounts suggest that Israel’s defense was not as effective as publicly announced. Several military nerve centers were hit by the missiles, causing extensive damage.

Growing threats and tensions

Iran justifies its attack as an act of “self-defense” and threatens to strike “all infrastructures” of Israel if it retaliates. General Mohammad Bagheri warns of a possible escalation if Israel continues its “crimes”.
Faced with this tense situation, the international community remains on alert, fearing further escalation in an already unstable region.
