Iran carried out an unprecedented “vast’ attack against Israel on the night of Saturday to Sunday. More than 300 drones and missiles against Israeli territory were fired.
Images of projectiles grazing the emblematic golden dome of the Dome of the Rock are making the rounds on the Internet. Others show projectiles intercepted above the al-Aqsa Mosque, the Western Wall, and the Knesset (the Israeli parliament). “We are entering into a direct Iran/Israel confrontation. This is unprecedented,” comments a correspondent on site in Jerusalem.. “In the Old City of Jerusalem, sirens and explosion- - Iron Dome in action. The residents are running for shelter,’ testifies another French correspondent. ‘Iranian drone shots intercepted by the Iron Dome, just above the Knesseset, the Israeli parliament. Striking image’, comments David Khafla, Director of the North Africa & Middle East Observatory of the Jean Jaurès Foundation, supporting screenshot from Israeli television.
