Iran missiles

At an IMF discussion in Washington, Qatari Finance Minister Ali Ahmed Al-Kuwari warned that the world will soon face huge economic ramifications resulting from the war with Iran.

Periods of reduced kinetic activity can ease pressure, allowing for Iran to once again clandestinely reorganize, restock, and even expand their weapons procurement.

The sources shared that IRGC Commander-in-Chief Ahmad Vahidi is attempting to curb the authority of Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi and Speaker of Parliament Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf.

"This war will be remembered as Trump's grave strategic miscalculation. One whose consequences reshaped the region in unintended ways," Middle East scholar Fawaz Gerges told Reuters.

The missile barrage triggered sirens across southern, central, and northern Israel.

The implementation of the suggested reopening timeline will be subject to a situational assessment by the Home Front Command, according to Education Minister Yoav Kisch.

Part of the question for Israel is how many of the missiles, many of which have been covered in rubble, can be salvaged and are only temporarily inaccessible to Iran?

According to MDA, the wounded people were in a car at the time of the missile strike. The damage didn't come from glass breaking or shrapnel, they added, but from the shockwave.

Committing the missiles to the Iran war does not necessarily mean all will be used, Bloomberg noted, adding that they have so far been launched from B-52 and B-1B bombers as well as strike fighters.

“Iran’s use of cluster munitions in populated areas in Israel poses a foreseeable and long-lasting danger to civilians,” said Patrick Thompson, a researcher at Human Rights Watch.
