OMG
It looks like most shots are landing, either it was a much larger salvo than the last time or Israeli missile defense is slacking for some reason. Lets see what are the targets, I wonder if it is limited to military targets
BMD is largely ineffective against modern ballistic missiles. You can see in these videos that there's hardly any BMD even fired off by Israel. Just check the speed alone of the incoming BM and compare with previous videos of what Israel uses against Hezbollah/Palestine rockets.
The thing is even a hypersonic ballistic missile will take several minutes to fly from Iran to Israel. So they can just take their aircraft airborne and wait until the strike passes before they land.
That seems impractical. They don't know exactly where the missiles are headed. Which base would you empty out, which installation, which area cleared?
Apparently Iran gave another courtesy warning before the attack ...
Tehran had informed Russia ahead of missile attacks on Israel, senior Iranian official tells Reuters
U.S. was alerted by Iran through diplomatic channels 'shortly before the attacks', the official said.

Why do they warn of the attacks before hand? Do they do that to prevent a response from the US?
There are international civilian jetliners moving through the region. A courtesy warning helps them to clear out. Iran would not want a missile striking, for example, a Greek or German aircraft carrying civilian passengers. Although, this is on the foreign operators to continue operating in what is obviously a warzone; Iran is actually being courteous to them in this regard. Maybe these foreign operators want Iran to hit their jets so they can build a casus belli for war.
Wonder if Iran hit any of those armour parking lots Israel assembled on the Lebanon boarder. That, and airbases would be some of the most obvious and juicy targets.
The attacks is reportedly on southern and central Israel.
Why did they intervene only in Syria to help their dictator stay in power?
Why not Yemen, Bahrain, Egypt, Libya etc etc? You all know the answer Why. Lol
Yes. We know the answer. Syria borders Lebanon. Bahrain, Yemen, Egypt, Libya do not border Lebanon.
