  1. This angle is insane. The rest haven’t shown much in the way of what isn’t being intercepted, but this? Good lord

  2. This is a nightmare. I dont think there’s avoiding war with Iran directly now anymore.

    IDF supposedly reporting no casualties but I’m willing to bet the financial and physical damage is significantly more massive than the last attack

  4. Should be an eye opener for the claims that nuclear missiles can be reliably intercepted. These things in theory should be a lot easier to stop but it turns out BMD is ridiculously difficult.

  5. They look much faster from up close, do we know what are the exact ballistic missiles being used?

    Soooo… where does Israel go from here? How do they escalate/respond?

    A ground invasion seems unfeasible, especially as they’re bogged down in Gaza and Southern Lebanon.

    Just intrigued to see what they do next, I guess.

  7. Yep, as said in another comment I believe the IDF has already claimed to have intercepted “most” of the ballistic missiles targeting Israel.

    Given the clustering here I am counting a whole bunch of Iranian missiles that either hit their intended target, or got close enough to count.

    I know it has to be this way because of how armed conflicts work, but I hate it when I am very obviously lied to… especially when it comes from a country with democratic institutions like Israel.

  8. Crap, this time it looks like a lot got through…

    Makes me wonder if Israel this time around didn’t get any additional help from the neighbouring, nations between them and Iran…

    Hopefully Iran managed to target actual military sites and didn’t hit civilian areas. Beacuse theses strikes look very broad…

    Midwest-American-Guy-Who-Watches-Tornados-From-His-Porch must be cousins with Israeli-Guy-Who-Watches-Ballistic-Missiles-From-His-Balcony.

  10. Anyone have any idea what they are hitting?
    Edit: some are saying it’s Nevatim airbase so if anyone got more info that would be cool

  11. Let’s hope Israel rethinks Netanyahu after this and we can work towards a ceasefire. This does not end well for anybody.

    Oh shit, I guess Iran had something a bit spicier than your regular Hamas garage-rocket. First time I’ve seen numerous impacts like this get through Iron Dome.

    Initial reports are only two people lightly wounded by shrapnel. That might seem low given the number of impacts, but this is what CNN has reported:

    >Israel assessed that Iran was likely to attack three Israeli air bases and an intelligence base located just north of Tel Aviv, a person briefed on the matter said. The intelligence base in Glilot was evacuated Tuesday afternoon, and the Israeli military has put contingency plans for the safety of personnel at those bases into effect.

    If those casualty numbers don’t rise, the extent of the damage to those bases could determine the severity of Israel’s retaliation.

  14. What was that saying, again, about a delusion about bombing everyone, and that no-one would bomb them in return?

    We are witnessing the opening salvos of a war where many will perish. Through all of our advances in science, technology, communication and social norms, we cannot escape the brutality we carry in our hearts.

    We have fooled ourselves into believing that we are different, we are better than we were before. This is fallacy. We are the same creatures that we have always been. The only difference now is that we have all the information we need at our fingertips to prevent conflict but we choose to turn our backs to it.
