Middle East on Edge: Iran Launches Massive Drone and Missile Attack on Israel (Video)

This article will be updated regularly as new information becomes available on this evolving story.

In a historic first direct confrontation, Iran conducted the largest drone and missile attack against Israel, launching approximately 350 drones and missiles. This marked a significant escalation in the nearly 45-year-long covert conflict between the Jewish state and the Islamic regime of Iran. Despite the scale, Israel’s defense systems intercepted 99% of these threats. The attacks included 170 drones and 120 ballistic missiles carrying over 60 tons of explosives, launched not only from Iran but also from Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, and Yemen.

Three Jordanians were killed, and a seven-year-old girl from a Bedouin village near Arad was seriously wounded. Additionally, minor damage was reported at the IDF Nevatim base in southern Israel. In response, Israel conducted immediate counterattacks in Lebanon following two rounds of rocket fire.

Israel’s security cabinet convened early Sunday to discuss further actions, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, and War Minister Benny Gantz. This meeting came after the Islamic Republic’s retaliation claim for the killing of a top Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps commander on April 1 in Syria, which Iran “claimed” was an act of self-defense against Israeli aggressions.

The United States, the United Kingdom, France, and Jordan played roles in neutralizing the airborne threats, with the US notably shooting down over 70 projectiles. The intensity of the defense efforts peaked between 1 a.m. and 3 a.m. when Israeli forces downed a significant number of Iranian threats.

Hezbollah contributed to the conflict by launching rockets from Lebanon towards the Golan Heights, intensifying regional tensions. These actions were claimed to be responses to earlier Israeli strikes in southern Lebanon.

As the dust settled, Iran’s mission to the UN declared the attack “concluded” but warned of more severe consequences should Israel retaliate. Meanwhile, Israel’s Home Front Command urged civilians to stay alert to changing threats, reflecting the prolonged nature of the conflict.

The Health Ministry has placed hospitals on high alert and canceled vacations for medical staff in anticipation of further escalations. Iraqi, Lebanese, and Jordanian airspace were also temporarily closed following the attacks, illustrating the regional impact of the confrontation.

Amidst these developments, Israel’s decades-in-the-making missile defense capabilities proved crucial. Moshe Patel of the Israel Missile Defense Organization highlighted the effectiveness of the Arrow and David’s Sling systems against the barrage. This defense success story began in 1986 and gained momentum after experiences from past conflicts, emphasizing Israel’s strategic shift towards robust missile defense capabilities.

In response to the ongoing threat, the IDF announced the upcoming deployment of two reservist brigades to address operations in Gaza, signaling continued military readiness and strategic planning in the volatile region.

This unfolding situation continues to draw international attention and calls by world leaders for “de-escalation” across the Middle East, as Israel continues to be the violent target of Islamic and communist regimes across the world.

  • Exoatmospheric explosion reminded me of fireworks?

    Looks like it is escalating, eh?. What a nightmare.

    Ayatollah Rugbeater says, Death to America is a policy. 💩🤡

    Time to deport all illegal iranians, and affiliate terrorists that bozobiden snuck across or flew into America. Or do we sit around waiting for that Fruit of Kaboom moment?

  • For now, there is no reason to panic. Speaking of the current period, Jesus declared, “And when you hear of wars and disturbances, do not be terrified; for these must first happen, but the fulfillment [of the sign] not immediately.” (Luke 21:9) The global nuclear war, (this will be the fulfillment of the sign of Jesus), will begin as a result of ethnic conflict. (Luke 21:10) This will happen only after the return of “the king of the north”. (Daniel 11:29a) Russian garrisons will return to where they were previously stationed. And this applies not only to Ukraine. The EU and NATO will break up. Many countries of the former Eastern block will return to a military alliance with Russia. Only afterwards will there be a direct clash between Russia and the US. (Daniel 11:29b, 30a)
    It will be a mutual slaughter and “the sword of great power” will be used. (Revelation 6:4)

    The prophet Ezekiel wrote: “A sword, a sword unlocked for slaughter, violently removing from the surface by devouring because of flash.” (21:28) This is no ordinary nuclear bomb, “it is dressed for the slaughter”. (Ezekiel 21:15b, Geneva Bible 1599) Nowadays, we call it a three-stage thermonuclear weapon.

    Jesus characterized it in this way: “a frightening things both and extraordinary from sky powerful will be.”
    For this reason, there will be significant tremors along the length and breadth of the regions and famines, and pestilences.
    Some ancient manuscripts contain the words “and frosts”. The Aramaic Peshitta: “and will be great frosts”. (Luke 21:11) We call this today nuclear winter.
    In Mark 13:8 there are also words of Jesus: “and disorders” (lack of public order). The Aramaic Peshitta: “and confusion” (on the state of public order).

    It will not be the end of the world. “All these are only the beginning of the labor pains.” (Matthew 24:8, NCB; cf. Isaiah 5:24, 25)
    It also will be the beginning of the day of God’s judgment. (Revelation 1:10)
    And it will not happen shortly, but in a sudden manner [εν ταχει]. (Revelation 1:1) There’s still time to reconcile with God. (cf. Ezekiel 33:11-20)

  • The United States, the United Kingdom, France, and Jordan played roles in neutralizing the airborne threats, with the US notably shooting down over 70 projectiles.

    In other words, the attack was a failure! Now, go stick your retarded missiles up your ass, and quit beating your women!
