Satellite radar data from Oregon State University, analyzed by The Daily Telegraph, indicates that during the recent 12-day conflict between Iran and Israel, six Iranian missiles penetrated Israeli airspace and struck five military facilities, including a major air base, intelligence centers, and a logistics hub.The IDF did not confirm damage to its bases but stated that 鈥渁ll relevant units maintained functional continuity throughout the operation鈥. With that, on the night of June 13th, the IDF called on the public not to publish the locations or photos of missile impacts.The missiles impacted sites across Israel, in the north, south, and central regions, highlighting the widespread scope of Iran鈥檚 offensive. Previously, it was believed that only civilian infrastructure was hit, but this data points to a more significant strategic impact.These impacts are in addition to at least 36 other Iranian missiles that penetrated Israel鈥檚 air defense systems, which caused damage to residential and industrial buildings.While most Iranian missiles were intercepted, the success rate of Iran鈥檚 strikes improved as the war progressed, possibly due to improved launch tactics or the deployment of more advanced missile systems.Live EventsThis analysis also reveals that Iran鈥檚 success in penetrating Israeli defenses with its missiles peaked at 16 per cent by the seventh day of the war, before declining thereafter.Satellite data indicates that Iran adapted its attack strategy to overwhelm Israeli defenses by using fast missiles alongside slower drones to divert attention.Despite this, about 84鈥87 percent of Iranian missiles were intercepted, according to various sources.Human Rights Activists in Iran (HRANA), a US-based organization, reported that more than 900 people have been killed and over 3,000 wounded as a result of Israeli strikes on Iran.The Iranian health ministry has stated that the number of wounded exceeds 4,000.(You can now subscribe to our Economic Times WhatsApp channel)
