Following the strike on Arad, Israel announced a change in Iranian attack tactics.

Reports are coming out of Israel that Iran has focused on attacks on targets in smaller towns in the country over the past two to three days. One such target is Arad, a city of 25 located 15 kilometers east of the Dead Sea.

In Israel itself, they consider this a new Iranian tactic, due to the fact that many small settlements in the country do not have any serious protection in the form of Defense-PRO-EWAnd those anti-aircraft systems that cover strategically important facilities and military bases, including facilities in Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, Haifa and the surrounding areas, are often not used for interceptions. missiles and UAVs flying to other targets.



In turn, Middle Eastern experts believe that Iran has not changed tactics, but continues what it was doing initially: first, it largely “knocked out” American air defense in the region - from Qatar and the UAE to Jordan, then significantly depleted Israel’s air defense, and now continues this depletion, working to ensure that the IDF reaches a total deficit of anti-missiles and drones-interceptors, completely exposing strategic targets to attack.



A noteworthy report from Middle Eastern media:

New footage demonstrates the scale of Iranian missile development, their destructive capabilities, and their target accuracy.

The situation in the Middle East continues to escalate. Both sides are threatening each other with incredibly powerful strikes. As VO previously reported, Trump is threatening to strike Iranian power plants, and Iran, in response, is threatening to destroy desalination plants used by the United States in the Middle East. For example, Israel desalinates approximately 800 million cubic meters of water annually, which covers approximately 80% of the country's freshwater needs for its population and industry. There are six major desalination plants in Israel: Sorek (the largest), Hadera, Ashkelon, Palmachim, Ashdod, and the new Western Galilee/Sorek 2. The Western Galilee plant has not yet reached its design capacity. If Iran destroys even two or three of these desalination plants in Israel, it could lead to a large-scale water crisis, which would be virtually impossible to manage in a war.

    Persians are not Arabs. These know what they want and they act!
    Well done, Iranians, they're acting with precision, even after their leaders are being eliminated one by one, along with their families. Creatures!! Did they think they could disperse the protests and have the BV in their pocket? Well, well.

        The DPRK is helping them... And the Russians, as always, are anxious not to offend their "partners"... Our Jewish lobby is very strong... Alas... Slavs have been fighting Slavs for five years now... To the delight of them and the Anglo-Saxons... Oh, Russia, what a naive soul...

          VKontakte constantly removes videos showing the scale of destruction from Iranian attacks, especially attacks on Israel. Oh, this censorship—when has it ever worked?

          Authors of articles on VO need to think about some other video resource for embedding video materials in their articles...

            Enemies are blaming VKontakte, just like MAX, for being controlled by the Kiriyenko clan.
            The family business has failed: Vladimir Kiriyenko was given a severe dressing down in the Kremlin for the technical paralysis of the "spy" MAX and the shameful fall of VK shares.

          Well, I remember that on June 22nd, columns immediately went from Iran towards the USSR... Mongolia also sent everything it could: 100 horses, sheepskin coats, mittens, and felt boots. And they took gold from the women.

            You're getting something mixed up. The USSR and Britain were forced to send troops into Iran at the end of the summer and later remove the then Shah from power due to his pro-German orientation.

    I hope it doesn't come to the use of nuclear weapons, but I think the Persians will be able to get reparations from the US, something that would never have occurred to anyone in the first days of the conflict.
    The death of Iran's top brass has led to an unexpected outcome: the new leadership no longer believes in negotiations and treaties. After all, it's so convenient for a surprise attack...

    If Iran hits even two or three of the aforementioned desalination plants in Israel, it could lead to a major water crisis.

    Firstly, it would be a beautiful thing to hit Israeli desalination plants. Secondly, a shortage of drinking water would lead to a mass exodus from this fascist quasi-state, and those who remain would be forced to stand in line for a canister of water, experiencing firsthand what life is like for Palestinians in Gaza.

    If they took out all the tankers, desalination plants, and refineries, it would be a complete disaster. The economies would immediately collapse—money, cars, and palaces wouldn't be a thing anymore. Deserts belong in deserts. And for those interested in keeping roads far from home and trying to dictate terms, it would be a stark lesson in whether they should have their own at home—or move... Some would be better off on an island far from sea lanes. It's good for Australia—its territory is essentially useless—some countries should be relocated there entirely. It's a real snake pit, considering who was sucked in there in the past centuries. The same scum as in the US.

This statement was published by the Israeli news agency WHO in Arabic. And these photos show Tel Aviv. Now the Israel News Agency confirms in Arabic that Iran launched a series of missiles with fissile warheads. This confirms that Iran continues to deploy its missiles in Israeli territory. Caliber?:"
