Most of that looks like discarded stages burning up on re-entry.

Factor of resolution as 30cm is limit for commercial satellite imagery and American government satellites can do 10cm per pixel/dot. Plausible some damage will not show up when of very small size such as 1cm or less, though such can be very destructive if for example electronic components are hit. For commercial satellite imagery it may not even show small craters from cluster munitions.
For all we know some of those planes could be riddled with fragments.

My guess is that those missiles were intercepted before they came into camera view and what we see is their breakup in atmosphere. In the beginning of the video you can see Arrow interceptors being launched and disappearing from view to the left, so the actual points of intercept are not visible.
Intercepted debris that follows its paths and hits the intended target in Israel, really?.
Some images are starting to become available, at least one hangar in Nevatim got a direct hit
I wonder where are all those guys a few days ago saying Hezbollah has shown worse performance then hamas and has taken a hit to their reputation after all those pager attacks on civilians and on their top leadership. This is just the first ambush on Israeli forces and they lose 8 guys. The only thing Israel is good for is carrying out terrorist attacks on civilians and shooting Palestinian kids in the heads. When it comes to fighting a somewhat semi professional army they get their asses handed to them.
I wonder what's Israel's response gonna be, Bibi promised overwhelming retaliation and Iran promised the next escalation will involve civilian targets, we can use our imagination as to what those targets might entail. It seems to me unless Israel can completely annihilate Iran's missile force, the next escalation will incur steep price for Israel regardless of the damage they inflict on Iran, man I' love to be a fly in IDF war room now.
And US appears to be staying out of it so far, they're playing the "Iran missile strike is a complete failure so we saw no need to get involved" script. So as far as I can see, Israel will have to solo at least the next escalation on their own.
I do have a nagging worry this thing might go nuclear.....

If you paid attention, you would realize that video was filmed in Jordan.
Nobody is denying that many missiles got through. Heck in that very video, at least half continued on their way to Israel.
More image emerging:
This one here is interesting, because it shows the same aera as Planet Labs but there are clear differences between the aircraft:
I'm not convinced all those red circles show impact though.
The red circles seems to be randomly drawn based on vibes and have no correlation to actual impacts. I can count 3 obvious impact point in the coloured image, one on top and one outside the hanger and one in the middle of the road.
