Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps claimed that the missile barrage was a demonstration of their capabilities, stating that they exclusively targeted military bases they deemed responsible for genocide in Gaza and Lebanon.
Pentagon spokesperson Pat Ryder noted that Israel successfully intercepted most of the incoming missiles, and U.S. Navy destroyers played a role in countering the attack by shooting down interceptors.
Israeli media reported one casualty from the barrage, with a 30-year-old woman named Shahir Goldman identified as the victim of the missile strike.
The U.S. State Department confirmed that several partners assisted Israel during the missile attack, although specific details about the countries involved have not been disclosed.
