This has hardly begun, and Israel's initial euphoria is beginning to wear off.
This has hardly begun, and Israel's initial euphoria is beginning to wear off. They are going to escalate now and try to attack civilian Iranian infrastructure, and Iran will retaliate in kind. In a day or two, much of Israel will probably be in the dark.
They are not reporting military casualties so far, but I don't believe it. HakirYa has been hit directly, and it is a huge base with thousands of soldiers there all the time. There have been hits in other military bases in the north as well.
Iran has shown it is in the game and can penetrate all layers of air defense. It is definitely going to use the intelligence it gathered so far to try and hit the missile defense batteries themselves, which, if they actually accomplish, will nullify all of Israel's achievements so far.
Remember that Israelis are spoiled children who have never been seriously hit, and Iran has a history and mentality of toughness, resilience, and resistance.
A battle of attrition between a huge missile force and an air force can have, in all probability, one clear winner, and it's not the one relying on people flying 4-5 hours to drop less explosive material than one missile. How many times and how many days can they do that? Iran can fire 200 missiles a day for a year, and probably thousands a day for weeks on end
