Deep dives

Israel's Targeted Strikes on Iran

Israel recently conducted airstrikes targeting military facilities in Iran that are pivotal for missile production and storage. This operation, which followed previous retaliations, aimed to neutralize specific threats to Israeli security without directly attacking nuclear or oil facilities. The strikes were qualitatively significant, especially since the damage inflicted on the Iranian military capabilities appeared to weaken their missile performance. As a result of these strikes, Iran faces challenges in operating and scaling its missile fleets effectively, partly due to stricter sanctions hindering facility reconstruction.
