According to the WSJ, the Missiles that the Iron Dome, davids sling and other Air Defence systsms uses are in short suply, and the US does not have a sufficent backlog to give to Israel
I'm not sure if it is real or if it is about yesterday's attack but there are reports emerging that Haifa is hit again. This time it should be the port area.
New missiles launched at Israel
โโ๏ธ๐ฎ๐ฑ/๐ฎ๐ท The targets of the Iranian attack in Be'er Sabaa:
-
Israeli Army Communications and Intelligence Central Command (IDF C4I HQ)
-
Israel's Central Information Technology Park in Gav Yam
Both are located directly next to Soraka medical center. The medical center was not a target, but suffered severe damage because Israel hides military sites around hospitals.

Iran accuses IAEA head Rafael Grossi of enabling Western aggression through biased reports, alleging collusion with non-NPT states and misuse of nuclear oversight to justify war.
โ ๐ฎ๐ท/๐ฎ๐ฑ How's the situation of Iran's ballistic missile program?
Israel claims it has now destroyed two thirds of Iran's TEL launchers capable of launching ballistic missiles towards Israel. They say this is the reason Iran has been firing less missiles on a daily basis compared to at the start.
However, in reality this likely isn't the case. We have actually seen less than 10 TEL launchers visuably confirmed to be destroyed. But then why is Iran seemingly 'unable' to launch large misile salvos at once?
Iran has a vast network of underground missile bases spread all throughout the country, with the main ones being located in Western Iran, near Tabriz, Khorammabad, and Kermanshah. These sites are located deep underground, and are practically invulnerable to conventional Israeli strikes.
However, in the opening strike on Friday, Israel managed to target some of these bases and collapse their tunnel entrances. It will take Iran days to remove the rubble and reopen the entrances, and even then, they will be vulnerable to repeated attacks due to Israeli air superiority in the West.
The majority of missiles being launched at Israel currently are originating from Central and Eastern Iran, places like Shiraz, Shahrud, or even Mashhad. This is because Israeli air superiority is much less consolidated in these areas.
However, even with the worst case scenario of only 100-200 TELs left, Iran should be able to carry out a large coordinated missile strike. So why don't they?
Carrying out a large-scale coordinated missile strike requires planning and staging. In the staging phase, launchers are taken out of their bases and prepared for launch. In areas where Israel has sufficient air superiority, they can quickly detect these launchers and preemptively strike them, potentially risking high losses.
This is why Iran is currently only using 1-2 missile bases at a time. They are carrying out 'hit-and-run' tactics: Take out 20-30 launchers, fire, and immediately withdraw back into the tunnels to avoid any losses.
When Iran feels more confident about its ability to launch large and coordinated attacks, they will do so. Because they have not run out of missiles and launchers, and won't anytime soon. But the situation at Iran's Western missile bases must first be addressed in order to proceed with this.
Over all, the vast majority of Iran's missile bases are fully intact, with the notable exception of possibly Tabriz, which we saw footage of large secondary explosions, implying that the underground structure was hit. For most of Iran's 'damaged' missile bases, it's simply a matter of time โ removing the rubble from the entrance tunnels and getting back to work.
When Israel's defense systems start becoming significantly degraded, which we will likely see in the coming days, Iran will probably launch larger attacks with its less sophisticated missiles with bigger warheads. Using those now would be a waste.

๐ฎ๐ท IRGC statement:
We targeted Al Udeid base in Qatar with a powerful and devastating missile attack as part of Operation Annunciation of Victory.
This base is the headquarters of the Air Force and the largest strategic asset of the terrorist American army in the West Asia region.
Iran will not leave any attack on its territorial integrity, sovereignty, or national security unanswered under any circumstances.
US bases and mobile military targets in the region are not a strength of this national defense, but rather a weakness.
Any repetition of evil will accelerate the collapse of the US military establishment in the region.
Repetition of evil will lead to the realization of the common aspiration of the Islamic nation and free peoples to eradicate the cancerous gland of Zion.
โโ๏ธ๐ฎ๐ท/๐บ๐ธ/๐ฎ๐ฑ NEW: The United States Navy has deployed 5 ships off the coast of Israel to help intercept Iranian ballistic missiles
This is alongside the many systems Israel already uses to defend itself, including THAAD, David Sling, Arrow-1 and Arrow-2, Patriot, Iron Beam and Iron Dome, as well as Sa'ar-6 vessels and fighter jets.
Iran is now effectively up against more than 10 seperate layers of Israeli missile defenses.

The internet in Iran was temporarily nationalized, most of our team is out of reach, so reporting will sometimes be less fast.

โโ๏ธ๐ฎ๐ท/๐ฎ๐ฑ Masih Alinejad, leading Iranian 'opposition' figure abroad:
'Israel ruined all of our plans. Netanyahu should have waited until the next mass protests and strikes began and then attacked in coordination with the opposition.
Israel's military action sidelined the opposition and the overthrow the regime for at least 15 to 20 years. People have now mistakenly become supporters of the Islamic Republic.'
