The biggest name in Israel’s military fleet is ‘Iron Dome’. The country has been proud of this air defense system for the past few years. And the United States has been providing unconditional military support to Israel. Americans see Israel’s security in the eyes of their own country’s sovereignty. However, this time, the United States itself expressed concern about the “Iron Dome” of Israel’s pride. News from CNN
The Palestinian independence group Hamas attacked Israel on October 7. In response, Israel is carrying out indiscriminate massacres in Palestine. There is talk of a ceasefire but no progress yet. In such a situation, instability is increasing throughout the Middle East.
Meanwhile, the Lebanese armed group Hezbollah has been threatening Israel against attacks on Gaza.
Israel is looking for possible ways to deal with Hezbollah. In such a situation, the United States calls the Iron Dome vulnerable to deter Hezbollah missile and drone attacks. At least three US officials have expressed serious concerns to CNN.
An Israeli official said his country is planning to transfer assets from southern Gaza to northern Israel to avoid possible attacks by Hezbollah. At the same time, he admits, if Hezbollah conducts a large-scale precision attack, then Iron Dome may face a challenge to prevent it.
Hezbollah has been stockpiling precision-guided munitions and missiles with Iran’s help. Israel is uncomfortable with that.
Earlier this month, Hezbollah released video of a drone attack on an army base in northern Israel and damage to an Iron Dome battery. Since then, concerns about the ‘Iron Dome’ of Israel’s pride have been expressed.
The Israeli Defense Force (IDF) estimates that Hezbollah has more than 150,000 rockets and missiles. Including thousands of weapons capable of hitting targets with precision. Also, according to the Congressional Research Service, Hezbollah’s ground forces are larger than Hamas’s. Who have approximately 40 to 50 thousand fighters. However, last Wednesday, the head of the armed group, Hassan Nasrallah, claimed that the number of their trained armed fighters is much higher than expected.
