<p><a href="https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/iranian-response-has-begun--sirens-sounded-all-over--israel" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Iran's missile attack against occupied territories</a>
on Tuesday night prompted security concerns in "Israel" and among its
allies over the consequences of a potential joint operation led by the
Axis of Resistance, including Iran and the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon
- Hezbollah, a piece published by <em>The Guardian </em>said.</p>
<p>In the article, Peter Beaumont says that while footage circulated
showed massive fires at the military bases, particularly Tel Nof
Airbase, "Israel" and its allies rushed to coin the attack a failure.
However, Beaumont argues that the understanding of the Iranian attack
does not solely depend on the damages that were inflicted, but rather on
the fact that 181 missiles were able to bypass and pierce the "mighty"
Israeli interceptors and air defenses. </p>
<p>According to the author, <a href="https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/ismail-haniyeh-assassinated-in-airstrike-on-tehran-residence" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Iran's operatio</a>n
was able to achieve exactly what it set out to, triggering long-running
concerns regarding "Israel's" security and the implications of a
possible joint missile attack by the Axis of Resistance. </p>
<p>What is worth noting, however, is the precision that was showcased
during the attack, marked by barely any damage to civilian
infrastructure, other than minor ones inflicted by shrapnel dropping
post-interception. </p>
<p>Although "Israel" boasts its interception and aerial defense
capabilities, it also prepped healthcare centers and hospitals to
anticipate and expect mass casualty events for when a scenario like
Iran's operation plays out. </p>
<p>Commenting on the attack, "Israel's" <em>Haaretz</em> daily reported
that the occupation forces refused to announce the percentage of
interception on Tuesday night to allegedly prevent Iran and Hezbollah
from obtaining key information that would "help them learn lessons."
This, according to Beaumont, confirms what reporters and analysts
deduced from the attack: Despite Israeli allegations of almost
impeccable interception, the Iranian missiles in both waves penetrated
occupied airspace and reached their targets. </p>
<h2>The Fruit of True Promise 2</h2>
<p>In other attempts to justify the penetration, Israeli military
officials claimed that Iran used its "most advanced" missiles to carry
out its operation. </p>
<p>In this context, Iran's <em>IRIB</em> news agency reported that the
IRGC used the Fattah hypersonic missile in its attack and reportedly
pierced the Israeli anti-missile shield, which consists of Arrow-2 and
Arrow-3 anti-ballistic missiles.</p>
<p>The IRGC announced that three military bases were successfully
targeted: Nevatim, Hatzerim, and the Tel Nof Airbase in Tel Aviv. </p>
<p>In detail, the Nevatim base houses the F-35 fighter jets, and the
Hatzerim base houses the F-15 fighter jets used to assassinate Martyr
Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah. The IRGC affirmed that the latter was targeted
in response to the <a href="https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/massive-israeli-strikes-hit-residential-area-in-beirut-south" target="_blank" rel="noopener">assassination of Hezbollah's martyred leader</a>. </p>
<p>Additionally, at least 90% of Iran's ballistic missiles and
projectiles launched from its first wave toward occupied Palestinian
territories struck their targets, according to the IRGC's second
statement released post-response.</p>
