"In just two hours, two missiles launched from Iran had directly impacted the towns of Arad and Dimona, the heart of Israel's nuclear weapons program, leaving nearly 200 wounded and the certainty that chance prevented a massacre."
"The failure to intercept two missiles in quick succession generated concern and questions about the capacity to wage a war of attrition with Iran, longer and more extensive than the 12-day conflict last June."
"Eyal Pinko refers to a mix of economic, logistical, and technical considerations that allow Israel to continue fighting for a long time, emphasizing the importance of having enough interceptors."

The IDF used a less expensive system, David's Sling, instead of the more advanced Arrow 3. This situation has sparked discussions about Israel's ability to sustain a prolonged conflict with Iran. Military censorship complicates the dissemination of information, while experts emphasize the need for strategic resource allocation in missile defense.
