And thankfully, 99% were intercepted and destroyed. No casualties, but sadly one Bedouin boy was critically injured, praying for his recovery.

“IDF Spokesman Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari says 99% of the 300 or so projectiles fired by Iran at Israel overnight were intercepted by air defenses.
“This is a very significant strategic achievement,” he says in a morning press statement.
“The Iranian threat met the aerial and technological superiority of the IDF, combined with a strong fighting coalition, which together intercepted the vast majority of the threats,” Hagari says.”
I’m sure a couple of people here are disappointed at that…

The question remains was Israel proper the target or were they actually headed to the occupied territories which Israel claims belongs to Israel, but belongs to the Palestinians.
What Iran has done has been to try to save face. It was certainly no true attack. Their planes never came close to Israel.
This is simply another exercise where Israel hopes to start a war for America to finish, and it will wind up just like what happened in Iraq. I really don't want another Iraq.

It’s a money game…
Each drone costs about 50k, each interception costs 1 million.

The vast majority were intercepted outside of Israeli air space. Only a few missiles had to be intercepted by the Iron Dome.
It was pretty miraculous.

I pray he recovers and glad that there hasn't been a lot of death.

I don't want another Iraq either. I am not expert on this topic but war makes me so uneasy.

There are those of us who knew Iran was throwing softballs in "retaliation" (if that's what you want to call it). Daniel is blowing smoke up your teez.
But it sure got the Zionists hopes up yet again that maybe now we have convinced Americans to take out Iran

Let's see what Israel targets next.
"Israel’s war cabinet has been authorized to respond to the attack and met on Sunday, with one of its members, Benny Gantz, saying the “event is not over.”
He cited the need to “build a regional coalition and exact a price from Iran, in a way and at a time that suits us.”
