Iran Fires Two Missile Barrages at Central Israel in Retaliation
Iran launched two separate rounds of ballistic missiles at central Israel in retaliation for the IDF's strikes in western Iran and the killing of IRGC Navy Commander Tangsiri. Israeli air defenses intercepted the majority of the incoming missiles, but some caused damage and injuries in central Israeli population centers. The barrages mark Iran's continued retaliatory capacity despite CENTCOM and IDF claims that Iran's missile production capability has been effectively destroyed. Iran's remaining arsenal consists primarily of pre-stockpiled missiles.
