On Friday night, Iran launched many ballistic missiles towards Israel. Some reports suggest that a few of these missiles hit Tel Aviv, and the Israeli military stated that they largely stopped the attack. However, some buildings were hit, and fifteen civilians were injured and needed hospital treatment in Tel Aviv. This attack is a big test for Israel's air defense system, which has been stopping rockets and missiles from different countries since the war started on October 7, 2023. The US has helped shoot down Iranian missiles using ground-based defense systems. Still, Israel has mostly handled its own defense over the past year with its advanced system. This system can detect incoming attacks and respond when a missile is heading towards populated or important areas. Israel's air defense has several layers: the Arrow system for long-range missiles, David's Sling for medium-range missiles, and the Iron Dome for short-range rockets. Israel is also developing the Iron Beam, which uses laser technology to stop threats.
