Unprecedented Attack: Iran Launches Over 300 Missiles Against Israel, But 99% Intercepted with U.S. and Allies Support.

On Saturday night, Iran launched over 300 ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, and drones against Israel for five hours. However, the Israelis were able to intercept 99% of the projectiles with the key support of their allies, including the United States. The attack was in retaliation for the Israeli bombing of the Iranian consulate in Damascus that resulted in the death of 13 Iranians, including a general of the Revolutionary Guard.

In preparation for the attack, U.S. officials like Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin and Secretary of State Antony Blinken were in constant communication with Israel and other regional countries. General Michael Erik Kurilla from United States Central Command was sent to Israel to coordinate defense efforts. The United States also engaged in direct communication with Iran through the Swiss channel, as there are no diplomatic relations between the two countries. Additionally, the U.S. coordinated with allies like the United Kingdom, France, China, India, Turkey, Jordan
