Iran’s armed forces launched their 14th round of attacks against Israel, escalating tensions in the Middle East. The assault, carried out on Thursday (June 19), involved a cluster of tactical missiles and suicide drones. Iranian media claims that the missiles used in this attack are of an entirely new type, built with cutting-edge technology.
According to Iranian news outlets, these missiles penetrated Israel’s multi-layered air defense system, striking key installations in the capital, Tel Aviv. The use of multiple warhead missiles has reportedly left Israel’s defense apparatus stunned. These missiles, capable of splitting into smaller sub-missiles upon impact, can target multiple locations simultaneously.
The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) acknowledged that Iran’s use of multiple warhead missiles has posed a new challenge to their air defense systems. In a statement, the IDF described the missiles as “a complex threat to our air defense capabilities.” Citing two security sources, Israel’s Army Radio reported that a missile targeting the Gush Dan area fragmented into several sub-missiles, striking multiple sites across the region.
The IDF stated that it remains on high alert and has activated its air defense systems in response to the attack. However, no immediate details regarding casualties or damage were disclosed by Israeli authorities.
The ongoing Iran-Israel conflict has raised fears of a broader escalation in the Middle East. Analysts believe that Iran’s deployment of advanced missile technology has added a new dimension to the conflict, posing a significant threat to regional and global security.
