Missiles launched by Hezbollah achieved at least one “direct hit” in the greater Tel Aviv area late on 18 November after air defenses failed to intercept the barrage launched from Lebanon.

Impacts were reported by the Israeli municipalities of Bnei Brak and Ramat Gan, located just east of Tel Aviv. According to the military, only fragments of the missiles hit the populated areas, injuring at least five.

However, the district police commander for Ramat Gan told Israeli media that the damage in the city “is not fragments of an interceptor but a heavy missile hit.”

The impacts in Israel’s economic hub came following a large missile barrage launched from Lebanon. According to reports in Israeli media, the projectile that bypassed air defense systems was the Fateh 110 surface-to-surface ballistic missile.

The Lebanese resistance’s latest attack on Tel Aviv comes after the Israeli army significantly escalated its attacks across Lebanon, hitting the country over 300 times in the span of 48 hours.

    Oh no, the predictable consequences of bombing civilians for 80 years, let’s hope their defense systems continue to fail.
