JERUSALEM (VINnews) — A Wall Street Journal article claimed that Israel had not intercepted all of the ballistic missiles launched by Iran, but rather about 50% of them, since the rest either crashed en route or failed to launch.

Citing US intelligence officials, the newspaper said that roughly 50% of the ballistic missiles fired by Iran had failed to reach their target.
U.S. officials said that Iran launched between 115 and 130 ballistic missiles that targeted Israel. When asked for more details about those strikes, the officials acknowledged that only about half of them were intercepted successfully. The rest failed in flight and didn’t reach their targets, the officials said.
“So much for the vaunted ballistic-missile capability of Iran,” said a U.S. official.
The success of Israel in rebuffing the Iranian attacks was due to a combination of Israel’s sophisticated air-defense system and critical assistance provided by the U.S. and other Western and Arab partners, according to the Wall Street Journal. American, British and Jordanian warplanes played an especially important role in downing drones. Most of the Iranian drones and missiles were destroyed before they even reached Israeli airspace.
Additionally, Israel benefited from intelligence it received from its Arab neighbors regarding the timing and nature of the attack it faced. This intelligence enabled the various forces to coordinate efforts and destroy all of the Iranian weapons.
If they “failed in flight, or failed to reach their targets” then perhaps HaShem heard our prayers, and intervened on Israel’s behalf.
It appears that the war cabinet has been falling apart because of Eizenkot’s and Gantz’s boycots of Netanyahu as agreed upon by their non approved meetings, with Biden and other American government officials about 2 1/2 weeks ago in Washington DC, despite Netanyahu’s disapproval. These-traitors cause the war cabinet to fail and reach an agreement in order to fight the war against
HAMAS , as per Biden’s and the USA government officials agreements with them in order to have Netanyahu removed from the government and declare unilaterally elections with money on the side provided. Just devious!!! They will fail completely. The Israeli people are not stupid.
