650 Iranian missiles fired, 24 killed, and 10,800 Israeli strikes: The war in numbers
|
[IsraelTimes] All two dozen fatalities in Israel and West Bank were civilians, most of whom were outside bomb shelters; 16 conventional missiles, hundreds of cluster bomblets hit populated areas
With a ceasefire in Iran
 ...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both. They hate Jews Zionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol...
taking effect early Wednesday morning, the full scope of the joint Israeli-American 40-day campaign against the Islamic Theocratic Republic began to emerge.
Israel, on February 28, launched its campaign against Iran, alongside the United States, to degrade the Iranian regime’s military capabilities, distance threats posed by Iran — including its nuclear and ballistic missile programs — and "create the conditions" for the Iranian people to topple the regime, the military and other Israeli leaders said.
Iran’s ballistic missile attacks on Israel continued until around 3:30 a.m. on Wednesday. And the Israeli Air Force continued at the same time to bomb Iranian launchers and other military sites, before halting its fire.
THE CIVILIAN TOLL
Iran, during the fighting, launched some 650 ballistic missiles at Israel. According to the military, more than half of the missiles carried cluster bomb warheads, which spread bomblets indiscriminately over wide areas.
The missile attacks killed 20 Israeli civilians and foreign nationals in Israel, along with four Paleostinians in the West Bank. More than 7,000 people in Israel were maimed, according to the Health Ministry.
On the first day of the war, Iran fired some 80 missiles at Israel. The following day, the Islamic Theocratic Republic fired around 60, and on the third, around 30. Over the following weeks and until the final day of the war, Iran launched on average 10-20 missiles per day.
In all, at least 16 missiles carrying conventional warheads — with hundreds of kilograms of explosives — struck populated areas in Israel, causing extensive damage.
There were also some 50 incidents of missiles carrying cluster bomb warheads hitting populated areas, with hundreds of separate impact sites.
All 24 fatalities from Iran’s missile attacks were civilians, and all but two were not inside bomb shelters. Cluster munitions killed 10, and conventional missiles killed 14.
According to the Home Front Command, more than 5,500 Israelis were displaced due to damage caused to their homes by the attacks
ISRAEL’S STRIKES AND IRAN’S REMAINING CAPABILITIES
The Israeli Air Force dropped over 18,000 bombs in Iran amid the war, in over 1,000 waves of strikes, the military said.
According to the IDF, over 10,800 separate strikes were carried out on over 4,000 targets, including air defense systems, ballistic missile launchers, weapon production sites, nuclear facilities, various headquarters, and military commanders and leaders.
IAF fighter jets conducted some 8,500 sorties to Iran, the military said.
The American military said that it alone carried out 13,000 strikes on Iranian military targets.
According to the military, Israel destroyed or disabled around 60% of Iran’s estimated 470 ballistic missile launchers. Around 200 of the launchers were destroyed in strikes, while another 80 were not considered to be operational after the IAF struck tunnel entrances to subterranean facilities where they are stored, according to the military.
At the start of the war, the IDF assessed that Iran had 2,500 ballistic missiles. IDF intelligence officials recently said they estimated that Iran still has around 1,000 missiles that are capable of reaching Israel.
In addition, the military assessed that its strikes have destroyed around 85% of Iran’s air defense and detection systems. More than 300 targets relating to Iran’s air defenses, including missile launchers and radars, were struck, the IDF said.
However,
a hangover is the wrath of grapes...
the most significant blow was to Iran’s weapon production industry, with the military reporting that it struck all of the key sites used to develop weapons that threaten Israel. Thousands of targets relating to Iran’s military production industry were destroyed, according to the IDF.
Israel has said that these strikes have caused significant damage to Iran’s ballistic missile production industry, and as a result, it currently cannot manufacture any new missiles.
IDF Spokesman Brig. Gen. Effie Defrin said the military "met all the goals and objectives set for it, and even exceeded them" during the war.
"We set out for Operation Roaring Lion to severely damage the Iranian terror regime and remove existential threats to Israel over time. We significantly struck all of its systems and capabilities, eliminated its leadership, damaged its command and control systems, eliminated many of its commanders, and severely hit its military industries, ballistic missile array, economic targets, and nuclear targets," he said in a presser on Wednesday.
NUCLEAR PROGRAM
While Israel carried out several strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities during the conflict, as well as in the 12-day war in June 2025, the effort against the Iranian nuclear program was being led by the US.
This included the issue of Iran’s stockpile of over 400 kilograms of 60 percent enriched uranium, which Israeli officials have said is enough for 11 nuclear bombs.
Among the nuclear sites that the IDF hit during the war were a yellowcake production plant near the central Iranian city of Yazd; Iran’s Arak heavy water reactor; a nuclear research and development site at the Malek Ashtar University in Tehran; the Taleghan 2 facility at the Parchin military complex; and a secret underground site on the outskirts of Tehran known as Minzadehei, where the IDF said Iran transferred much of its nuclear program after the war with Israel in June.
ECONOMIC DAMAGE
Israel shifted to bombing "economic targets" in Iran during the later weeks of the war, aimed at causing massive financial damage to the Iranian regime.
The targets included major Iranian gas infrastructure in the country’s south; two of Iran’s largest steel factories; several petrochemical facilities; and 10 "key" rail sections and bridges.
The military has said that the petrochemical facilities were used to manufacture materials for ballistic missiles, and the rail sections and bridges were used by Iran to move weapons. But Israeli security officials said the strikes were also aimed at causing economic damage to Iran.
IRAN’S MILITARY LEADERSHIP
Israel’s opening strikes on Iran on February 28 killed Iran’s former supreme leader, Ali Khamenei
...the very aged actual dictator of Iran, successor to Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini...>
, and eliminated another 40 top Iranian military commanders within 40 seconds, according to the IDF.
Others were killed over the following weeks.
They included top military adviser to Khamenei Ali Shamkhani; commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Mohammad Pakpour; IRGC Navy chief Alireza Tangsiri; IRGC intelligence chief Majid Khademi; Basij paramilitary force commander Gholamreza Soleimani; IRGC front man Ali Mohammad Naini; National Security Council head Ali Larijani; defense minister Aziz Nasirzadeh; SPND chairman Hossein Jabal-Amelian; and Khamenei’s military secretary Mohammad Shirazi.
Dozens more senior and medium-level officers were killed by Israel.
The IDF has estimated that some 5,000 Iranian soldiers have been killed in Israeli strikes, along with tens of thousands more maimed, many of them members of the internal security forces and Basij paramilitary force.
