Iran missiles hit Israel in new barrage as sirens blare across Israel
Iran launched a new missile barrage at Israel, triggering prolonged sirens across northern, central and southern regions, including Jerusalem.
At least four impacts were reported in Ashdod, Ashkelon, Safed and south of Jerusalem – new targets in this escalating conflict.
While emergency services reported no immediate casualties, strikes near Ashdod’s industrial zone raised concerns about critical infrastructure damage.
The attacks exposed gaps in Israel’s air defences, despite its advanced US-supplied systems struggling against Iran’s evolving tactics.
Analysts noted Iran’s strategic shift – firing fewer but more potent missiles that evade interception. The strikes challenged Israel’s narrative of air superiority, revealing vulnerabilities in its multi-layered defence against state-level threats.
