Iran’s failure to understand the war it was entering into is a historic failure.
The Islamic Republic was only able to fire around half of the missiles it had intended to fire on Israel overnight.
To date, the Iranian missile salvos have focused on the Gush Dan/Tel Aviv/central Israel area, the Haifa area, and the Beersheba area.
In the coming hours, Israel is expected to order residents of various neighborhoods in Tehran to evacuate, followed by strikes on infrastructure and government buildings.
While nighttime offers obvious concealment, the choice to strike under the cover of darkness is rooted in far more than visibility.
United Hatzalah said that it had received several reports of impacts around the country. ZAKA reported a direct hit on a residential building in northern Israel.
It is true that Israel has taken a substantial bite out of Tehran's nuclear program, but it is far from down for the count.
