IDF Spokesman: Iran carried out an attack yesterday during which 350 launches of various types were carried out - this is 60 tons of explosive material that could cause tremendous damage in any region of the country. Dozens of fighter jets, alongside the Israeli defense systems, in cooperation with the regional coalition led by the USA, Great Britain, France and other countries in the region, intercepted 99% of the threats.
No country ever intercepted over 100 ballistic missiles in space within one hour.
The combination of Iron Dome, David’s Sling, Arrow 2 and Arrow 3 combined proved to be the best multi layer air defense system in the world!

The “damage” to Nevatim airbase after Iran shot 60 tons of explosive
Israel’s navy intercepted a drone from Yemen in the Red Sea
IDF: Last night, the Israeli Air Force, together with our strategic partner countries, successfully intercepted dozens of aerial threats launched from Iran towards Israel. The IAF deployed dozens of aircraft into the sky on an aerial defense mission to protect the country's skies, and successfully intercepted unmanned aircraft vehicles (UAVs) and cruise missiles.
Out of hundreds of launches, only a few missiles crossed into the territory of the State of Israel causing only minor damage to infrastructure at the Nevatim Airbase near the runway and to a road in the Hermon area.
The functionality of the Nevatim Airbase was not affected, aircraft continued to take off and fulfill their defense and offense missions - even during the night, and throughout the day.
IDF soldiers deployed in all arenas are prepared and are continuing to defend the State of Israel.

An official from the Saudi royal family said that “any suspicious object” that enters Saudi Arabian airspace is intercepted, an apparent nod toward the kingdom’s alleged role in shooting down Iranian attack drones headed for Israel last night.
The Jordanian Foreign Minister confronts the criticism of the interception of the Iranian missiles and UAVs in Jordanian skies:
"We will intercept any UAV or missile that improved our airspace, whether Iranian or Israeli."

The multi-layered defense -
yesterday when I sat in front of the screen and saw the interceptions, tears came rolling down my face.
From talking to some acquaintances, it seems that the public does not understand the historical magnitude of the event, apparently because we have grown into reality with an iron dome, but this is a completely different event.
The story that begins in the 90s with the beginning of the development of Arrow 1 and 2 (later came the Iron Dome, David's sling, Arrow 3, 4 and Iron Beam)
Unlike Iron Dome, which since 2011 has had thousands of operational opportunities to learn and improve, the first time Arrow 2 and 3 faced a *real* operational challenge was in the current war.
This is about the interception of one single missile by each of them. that's it.
To try to illustrate the meaning of things, imagine a person who practices basketball for 30 years alone, and the first time he steps on the court is for a one on one game against Michael Jordan, and he wins, 100:0. This is the event.
