Some 400 rockets were launched onto Israel on Tuesday night by Iran, The Jerusalem Post understands, following rocket alert sirens that blared throughout the country.
So far, 4 people were reportedly killed during the aerial attacks, and there have been two direct hits, one of which was in Tel Aviv.
Iran launched the wave of attacks after the IDF announced on Monday night that it had begun limited ground operations in Lebanon.
Good job Israel, you’ve really managed to piss off everyone in the region.
The people downvoting you are on the other side of the issue. The side that kills people too.
Lol haven’t had to do this on lemmy before but this belongs in r/im14andthisisdeep or whatever the fuck that subreddit name was.
Alas, it seems there are no winners anymore. Just sides. I don’t suspect this will end well for Iran in the long term.
We have till January next year before a full scale war in the middle east. Till then Israel will continue with genocide and it’s belligerence. And other countries will keep on posing.
It won’t be war. It will be a series of small scale incursions. The word ‘war’ is bad for business.
Not for the millitary industrial complex. It will just b another proxy war like the one in Ukraine.
As is shown by history, USA will not send troops to there is an attack on its soil. Though it will support both the sides if possible.
Desert Storm, Korea, Vietnam all seem to disagree with what I understand that second point to be. US will send troops if it is politically expedient.
Ukraine is no proxy war, those are Russian troops. Iran is pulling a proxy war using Lebanon and the various funded groups who carry out attacks on Israel. Iran grabbed that one from ol’ uncle sams playbook.
I’m scared for all the citizens involved in this. I really hope this will end soon, but I don’t think it will…

The only reported fatality was a Palestinian man who was killed when a rocket hit the West Bank town of Jericho.
