YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Israel prides itself on having some of the best air defenses in the world, but these billion-dollar systems are being tested. Since the Iran-backed Palestinian group Hamas provoked a new war with Israel on Oct. 7, other militant organizations supported by Iran have joined in, launching rockets, missiles and drones at Israel. Iran itself has struck twice, most recently on Oct. 1 with a barrage of roughly 200 missiles.

#iran fired about 200 ballistic missiles at #Israel on Tuesday, a sharp but brief escalation between Middle Eastern adversaries that threatened to trigger a fresh round of attacks as Prime Minister Benjamin #Netanyahu vowed to retaliate.

The barrage started around 7:30 p.m. Israel time, after the #US only hours earlier warned that an attack was imminent. The Israel Defense Forces said many of the missiles had been intercepted and reports indicated one person had been killed in the West Bank.
