U.S. officials say half of the hundred ballistic missiles launched by Tehran failed to launch or crashed on the way.
At least nine of them penetrated the defense system and hit two Air Force bases in the Negev. In Europe they are trying to convince Israel to avoid a reaction, Iran has resumed domestic flights in Iran. The world fears that a possible response by Israel will lead to an all-out war in the region. The United States made it clear that it would not be part of any Israeli action, and according to reports, President Joe Biden pressured Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to be satisfied with a response in light of the successful thwarting of the launches. However, it is not clear whether Israel will accede to the pleas of the international community. It was announced that Gantz and Minister Gadi Eisenkot were among the cabinet members who supported an attack on Iran even at the time of its attack on Israel. The two countries returned to normal today with the resumption of domestic flight in Iran and the lifting of restrictions on Israel's home front.
