Irans' hypersonic ballistic missiles, for which there is no effective defense, all got through and hit their targeted positions, frighteningly close to the heart of Israels defense HQ.
The 300+ drones were there to exhaust the iron dome, which is what happened, and the hypersonic ballistic missiles were there, to demonstrate that there is no effective defense against them (because there isn't, in spite of propaganda stated otherwise). Iran made the very important point that they could launch these hypersonic missiles with impunity, but instead exercised 'restraint'. The world military communities took very specific note that these missiles are impervious to existing defense technologies, and it was not the first time Iran made this point - they also demonstrated this capability in their response to the assassination of Solemeini, placing the missiles on the berths of the people involved in the assassination...
Huh? Iron Dome wouldn't have been capable against a hypersonic anyway, there's nothing to be gained from bleeding it. They did engage the fast stuff with Arrow.
They proved they can do it and that it is defeatable. That's a big gain, especially for those who have suffered under the repression that the iron dome protects and prolongs.
Dismissive arguments such as yours allows that suffering to continue. It can be defeated, also. Do you not observe the daily murder with earnest humanity?
