Iran is believed to have the largest and most diverse ballistic missile stockpile in the Middle East.
And since Iran's supreme leader vowed to open "the gates of hell", those capabilities have been on display.
Iran-Israel conflict live updates:
Waves of missile and drone barrages have been lighting up the skies across Israel, as Tehran continues targeting the country in response to Operation Rising Lion.
Some have managed to break through Israel's sophisticated air-defence systems, killing at least 13 people and injuring hundreds more.
But with Israel targeting Iran's nuclear and military structure, analysts say the strikes have been limited.
And if the conflict between the two countries continues, Iran may struggle to keep up.
Iran poses 'complex' challenge
Israel's operation has wiped out members of Iran's military command and damaged its nuclear sites.
At least 242 people have also been killed, according to Iran's state media.
Israel said the goal of Operation Rising Lion was to dismantle Iran's nuclear and ballistic missile programs.

Iran has been developing long-range missiles for several decades.
It also possesses vast amounts of short-range rockets and potential hypersonic weapons, most of which are locally produced.
According to US estimates, Iran had an inventory of about 3,000 ballistic missiles before Israel's recent strikes.
The US Office of the Director of National Intelligence said it was the largest stockpile in the Middle East.

US Central Command chief Kenneth McKenzie warned in March of "the growing size and sophistication of Iran's missile force".
"Tehran's missiles, combined with its nuclear potential, pose a complex deterrence challenge," he said.

Itamar Ben Gvir to Amir Bar-Lev:
“Why did you provoke Iran?”
Bar-Lev responds:
“We didn’t realize the power of Iran’s missile capabilities.”
Maybe he is right, in some way and according to his own logic, and if the translation and the video is true, then... not pursuing peace is definitely a total psycho-sociopath, probably what a monstrous being would do.
ReplyDeleteI guess the RU will be completing their "SMO" pretty soon per Trump post of mutual cessation of kinetic action at UA and between IL and IR.
But like the Arabs in a zoom call that got into an argument would do, beating each other with slippers, we can throw a virtual and symbolic slipper at such waste of an oxygen.
Yes, there is an x post with video of two middle eastern fellas beating and insulting one another with slipper via a zoom call floating around in cyber space.

πΊπ¦π·πΊ WOW: Zelensky says that people should stay as human shields in cities.
If people will be evacuated from the Ukranian cities, Russia can strike anywhere … he says.
He wants women and children to stay as human shields.
-> This is insane, he is losing it
Clown is showing Russia cares about civilians, wakakaka
DeleteThe Q drops help anons to bring out the insight that all the nations mentioned below, were under DS controlled. In Saudi case, up until 2017 and with famous sword dance during dJT1.0 visit.
ReplyDeleteNK, the back and forth on the big and bigger red button culminating the freeing via the SG, Hanoi and DMZ summit and visit.
Seems like UA IR, PK is in the process or going to be cut free. Even IL.
Something to consider...

Who really ran much of Saudi Arabia until 2017?
Who really ran NK until 2018?
Who really runs Ukraine/Pakistan?
Who really runs Iran?
Who is Trump REALLY talking to here?

ReplyDeleteπ Mossad isn’t as badass as it seems: Top scandals making it look silly
Iran has struck Unit 8200 and the Mossad headquarters in Herzliya and detained 28 Israel-linked intel agents involved in its clandestine drone op. Is Israel intel losing its grip?
Other Mossad scandals:
Did Israeli spies drop the ball on nuclear secrets?
π Just days before Israel’s surprise attack, Iran’s intel chief announced it had snagged a “treasure trove” of documents on Israel’s nukes, foreign ties, and defenses — soon to be revealed.
π Israel’s in denial about its nukes, yet somehow Mossad couldn’t keep this secret under wraps.
Israel's intel Unit 8200 compromised
π In December 2024, pro-Palestinian hackers Handala breached Silicom — the “biggest and most feared cover company” of Unit 8200 — avenging Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar’s death, per Press TV
π They grabbed a whopping 40 TB of “top secret” emails, documents, R&D files, and call records.
Mossad’s blockchain network? Also hacked
π Handala claimed they cracked Mossad’s SSV Blockchain Network, used to pay spies across West Asia.
π Mossad was so sure it was bulletproof they dangled a $1M bounty for anyone who could breach it.
π After 4 months, Handala broke it and grabbed 8 TB of sensitive data. Oops.
Even Mossad’s own chief wasn’t safe
π In 2022, the ‘Open Hands’ hacking group leaked Mossad Director David Barnea’s personal info — photos, ID, flight records, tax docs, home location, and even a silly video clip, as per The Times of Israel.
π Mossad’s response? “Phone wasn’t hacked, material’s old.” That explains everything.
Running a pedophile ring?
π Alleged former Mossad agent Ari Ben-Menashe claimed US millionaire pedophile Jeffrey Epstein was an Israeli spy asset.
π Epstein allegedly used under-aged girls for high-profile blackmailing and was also involved in “national security issues.”
Mossad's botched hit & humiliation
π In 1997, Mossad tried to poison Hamas leader Khaled Meshaal in Jordan.
π The op flopped so badly Benjamin Netanyahu had to send the antidote and free Hamas' spiritual leader to clean up the mess.
