1:01Now PlayingIsrael 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 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.
