    102 missiles

    I’m watching live on YouTube, it sounds like a thunderstorm in Tel Aviv right now as they get intercepted.

      Israel Defense Forces spokesperson Daniel Hagari said that Iran’s attack on Israel “will have consequences.”

      “We are on high alert both defensively and offensively,” Hagari said during a news briefing following the attack. “We will defend the citizens of the State of Israel.”

      Hagari said the military has “plans” and will strike at the time and place of their choosing.

      Hagari said the military has not identified any additional aerial threats from Iran, and reiterated that people can leave shelters. The IDF “carried out a large number of interceptions,” Hagari said, adding that parts of central and southern Israel were impacted by missiles.

      “At this stage, we are still assessing the situation,” Hagari said. “We are not aware of any casualties.”

        There’s lots of damage from intercepted missile shrapnel all around Tel Aviv, but it appears they were all shot down.

        Now Iran will probably say revenge has taken and move on, but we will see.
