BREAKING: WORLD War 3 Imminent As Iran Fires 180 Missiles Against Israel [VIDEOS]

BREAKING: WORLD War 3 Imminent As Iran Fires 180 Missiles Against Israel [VIDEOS]—-AS expected, Iran has fired over 180 missiles on Tuesday evening against Israel in retaliation of the death of Hezbollah Leader, Nasrallah.

 

BBC Verify has been speaking with military experts to understand which type of missiles were used in Iran’s attack on Israel.

Patrick Senft, a Research Coordinator at the Intelligence Consultancy firm Armament Research Services (ARES), tells BBC Verify that fragments suggested that ballistic missiles had been used in the attack.

Ballistic missiles reach their targets faster than common cruise missiles, he adds, and “make up the majority of the Iranian long-range strike capabilities”.

Dr Thomas Karako, the Director of the Missile Defense Project at the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS), is also confident that ballistic missiles were used.

His colleague, Mark Cancian, a Senior Adviser at CSIS says that the difference between today’s attack compared with Iran’s attack in April is that “more missiles seem to be hitting Israel”.

He adds that ballistic missiles are harder to intercept by missile defence systems “because of their higher speed”.

Summary

No injuries have been reported so far and Israeli authorities say civilians can leave bomb shelters. Israeli military spokesperson Daniel Hagari says “this attack will have consequences.”

Israeli troops have invaded Lebanon, in what the Israeli military calls a “limited, localised and targeted” ground operation against Hezbollah.

On Tuesday morning, an Israeli security official told the BBC there had been “no clashes” yet – but a military spokesman later told people in around 25 Lebanese villages to evacuate.

The Lebanese Prime Minister says his country is facing “one of its most dangerous phases”, and that one million people are displaced.
