Iranian Missile Attacks and Israel’s Air Defense Systems – GB News Interview

In this interview, Miri describes her personal experience in Tel Aviv during recent Iranian missile attacks. She explains Israel's extensive early warning system, which gives residents a five to seven minute alert to reach bomb shelters. Miri highlights that, while most Iranian missiles and drones have been intercepted—over 95% success rate—the small percentage that breaks through can still be deadly, as seen in recent fatal strikes in Tel Aviv and Beit Shemesh. She outlines Israel's multi-layered air defense, including the Iron Dome for short range threats, David's Sling, the Arrow system, and for the first time, a laser-based system designed mainly against drones. Despite these robust defenses, she notes the psychological and practical realities for Israeli civilians, who remain vigilant and prepared to shelter at any moment.
