Iranian missiles struck Israeli military sites on Tuesday night, breaching air defenses. At least two dozen long-range ballistic missiles targeted three installations, including the Nevatim air base and Tel Nof base. Videos confirmed by The Washington Post showed direct impacts at these bases. Additional missiles landed near Tel Aviv, creating craters close to the Mossad headquarters. This attack marks a significant escalation, as it successfully penetrated Israeli defenses, which have previously intercepted many missile threats.
