Did Israel have a misconception about Iran's military strength?
In the recent conflict, Iran's missile and cluster attacks have caused significant damage and panic inside Israel. Short-, medium- and long-range missiles can be fired simultaneously, and cluster bombs can cause multiple explosions. Despite the presence of Iron Dome, not all attacks have been stopped. The United States and Israel have been attacking Iranian nuclear facilities, and Iran has retaliated and closed the Strait of Hormuz. Analysts say Israel may not have completely underestimated Iran's military power, but it has underestimated its true effectiveness and influence, which has made the war more complicated.
