Iran launched at least one ballistic missile carrying a cluster warhead at central Israel during the attack on June 19 morning, according to the Home Front Command of the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) announced.
The missile’s warhead splits while descending, at an altitude of around seven kilometers, spreading around 20 smaller munitions at a radius of around eight kilometers, the command said, adding that the submunitions do not have any propulsion, and simply fly away randomly to the ground.
One of the small submunitions struck a home in the central town of Azor, causing some damage, equivalent to a small rocket.
An Israeli military official said that such a missile poses a threat to a much wider area than Iran’s other ballistic missile warheads, but the explosion from each of the cluster bombs is far smaller.
The Israeli announcement was not surprising considering that Iran is known to have developed several types of cluster warheads for its ballistic missiles, especially for the medium-range Shahab family. Details on these warheads are, however, very scarce.
The morning missile attack, which saw Iran launching some 30 ballistic missiles, was the most devastating so far. Multiple impacts were reported in the city of Beersheba in southern Israel, and the areas of Holon and Ramat Gan in the Tel Aviv District in the center of the country with reports indicating that over 240 people were wounded.
According to the IDF, Iran has launched more than 400 ballistic missiles and 1,000 suicide drones since the start of the Israeli attack on its nuclear program, codenamed Operation Risin Lion on June 13.
These retaliatory attacks have so far claimed the lives of more than 25 people and left more than 500 others wounded in Israel.

those saa guys must really be kicking themselves at this time. “why the heck did we surrender?”, is probably going through their heads.
deir ezzor province: unidentified gunmen, believed to be affiliated with isis, on a motorcycle shot dead two women in al-bukamal city in eastern deir ezzor countryside. according to reliable sohr sources, the two women were accused of “practicing witchcraft.”
on april 9, sohr sources reported that a person was killed under brutal torturing in prisons of the new administration, two days after being arrested by the general security in al-bokamal city in deir ezzor for “practicing sorcery…
they might be trying to mesmerise/hypnotize people, especially the police. bewitchment = hypnotic trance
that’s a good one coming from some satanist death cult.
saa command was compromised. they acted upon orders from the new masters & did not resupply units & compromised commanders either abandoned their units or ordered them to give up their positions.
the us did the same thing in iraq in 2003. now iraqi generals live in big houses in the us. they will have syrian neighbors soon. there was nothing the russians could do at that point other that grab assad and get him out of the country. all this nonsense posted here about russian betrayal is a combination of ignorance & trolling.
they were ordered to surrender by bribed commanders, just like the afghan republican troops. the system betrayed the nation.
these bribed commanders could have been heros. they may have taken back syrian oil, farm and factory lands if they didn’t fold their cards.
if hezbollah’s supply routes weren’t cut, they may have taken backe the golan heights. i guess they took the easy way out. they’ll die as spineless wusses in their mansions. just like american politicians.
they didn’t really surrender they were abandoned when they didn’t need to be.
“the israeli army announced” you lost me right there. use a credible source next time.
sf changed sides as did putin. putin doesn’t go with principles, he goes with the trend.
sf in on zionist propaganda. how much is putin getting from zionists?
this is the usual nato smearing of a leader than is crushing them. enjoy the rage.
i guess we need to attack iran cause they used these illegal, evil cluster bombs. no way good guys like those ukrainians or israelis would do something like that.
if you want to live…gtfo tehran…heheheh
it’s the same old story — trolls celebrating a win before the fight even begins. where have we seen this before? don hasn’t seemed very upbeat lately. i doubt everything is going as expected.
while the isralis are pissed at the idf and fleeing israel …
southfront idiots really thought they were going to win this time!
sounds like you have personal experience with ass penetration. you must be in israel.
homs province: general security forces in tel kalakh area in the western countryside of homs confiscated a shipment of “grad” missiles aboard a vehicle in a side road near the syria-lebanon border.
according to sohr sources, the vehicle’s driver was arrested and taken to a security centre, while no further information about the sources of those missiles or their destination have been reported.
where is the source based at, oh ya in london.
pro opposition and was anti assad.
israel lies faster than they can speak. i’ll believe this when there is credible independent confirmation, not a second earlier.
king, peasants and war……we live in the middle ages 2.0.
the us has ordered all embassy staff out of israel . and recommends that all americans leave immediately .i wonder if this includes murder tourists ?
it’s funny how in the last article that bibi netanyahu and israel defense minister was crying about iran targeting civilians and promising they will be held accountable for war crimes, like they have not be doing this to the palestinians for over seventy years. the israeli people are finally getting a taste of their own medicine, too bad it will be short lived because israel puppet empire is coming to destroy iran and save israel.
