Iranian Missile Carrying 26 Smaller Warheads Causes Widespread Damage in Israel

Taarek Refaat A recent Iranian missile strike has resulted in extensive damage over a large area, with reports confirming that the missile carried 26 smaller warheads. The attack has caused destruction within a radius of several hundred meters from the impact site, according to local sources and initial assessments. The missile, which was reportedly launched from Iranian territory, has raised significant concerns about the increasing volatility in the region, especially amid ongoing tensions between Iran and Israel. Experts suggest that the missile's payload, consisting of multiple smaller warheads, was designed to maximize the area of impact, causing widespread damage to both infrastructure and civilian areas. While details on casualties remain unclear, the scale of the damage is evident, with numerous buildings and structures suffering heavy destruction. Local emergency teams have been deployed to the affected areas to provide assistance and assess the extent of the damage. The missile strike marks a further escalation in the already tense situation, as the geopolitical rift between Israel and Iran continues to deepen. Analysts fear that such attacks could lead to even more significant military responses, further destabilizing the region. As the situation develops, international diplomatic efforts are underway to address the rising tensions and avoid further escalation of military actions. صاروخ كروز إيراني جديد يدخل الخدمة العسكرية تطوير محلي بمدى دقيق وقدرات متقدمة، يعكس تصاعد القدرات الدفاعية الإيرانية في مواجهة التهديدات — إيران بالعربية (@iraninarabic_ir) June 20, 2025 #إيران بدأت استعمال صواريخ جديدة . #اسرائيل_سقطت 🔥 #الحرب_بدأت_الان — عبدالله جعفر (@AbdoallahJafar) June 20, 2025 read more Gold prices rise, 21 Karat at EGP 3685 NATO's Role in Israeli-Palestinian Conflict US Expresses 'Strong Opposition' to New Turkish Military Operation in Syria Shoukry Meets Director-General of FAO Lavrov: confrontation bet. nuclear powers must be avoided News Iran Summons French Ambassador over Foreign Minister Remarks News Aboul Gheit Condemns Israeli Escalation in West Bank News Greek PM: Athens Plays Key Role in Improving Energy Security in Region News One Person Injured in Explosion at Ukrainian Embassy in Madrid News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War Arts & Culture Zahi Hawass: Claims of Columns Beneath the Pyramid of Khafre Are Lies News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks Videos & Features Video: Trending Lifestyle TikToker Valeria Márquez Shot Dead during Live Stream News Shell Unveils Cost-Cutting, LNG Growth Plan Technology 50-Year Soviet Spacecraft 'Kosmos 482' Crashes into Indian Ocean News 3 Killed in Shooting Attack in Thailand

Iran deploys multi-warhead missile for first time, posing unprecedented threat to Israel's Iron Dome

Marking a critical battlefield shift, the Israeli army announced that Iran has, for the first time, used a missile equipped with multiple warheads during an attack targeting the Gush Dan region. This type of missile represents an unprecedented threat to air defense systems, most notably the Iron Dome system, which has long served as a primary shield protecting Israeli cities. Multi-warhead vs. traditional missiles: What's the difference? Unlike traditional missiles that carry only a single warhead, multi-warhead missiles detonate in the air and release multiple explosive charges in different directions, akin to cluster bombs. This significantly increases the impact area and complicates interception efforts. According to Maariv newspaper, citing Israeli military sources, one of the missiles detonated at a certain altitude and released small cluster bombs within an 8-kilometer radius. Each of these submunitions reportedly weighed around 2.5 kilograms. Why these multi-warhead missiles pose a new challenge? The Iron Dome defense system is primarily designed to intercept short-range, single-warhead missiles. However, when a missile carries multiple warheads that separate in mid-air, the system faces a significantly more complex task: It must detect several small targets simultaneously. It needs to launch multiple interceptor missiles within a very short timeframe. It has to prioritize engaging targets based on their distinct trajectories. This scenario rapidly depletes the system's resources and increases the likelihood that some warheads could penetrate the airspace without being intercepted. Troubling strike on Gush Dan region The recent attack employing these multi-warhead missiles targeted the Gush Dan region, a central urban area encompassing Tel Aviv and its suburbs. This region is considered the heart of Israel's economy and technology sector. The deployment of such missiles is viewed as a qualitative leap in Iran's deterrence capabilities and raises questions about the readiness of Israeli defenses against evolving military tactics. Iran's dual military message Military analyses suggest that Iran's use of this new missile type is not merely a weapons test; it's a strategic message from Tehran asserting its capability to overwhelm even the most advanced defense systems in the region, and potentially worldwide. This development unfolds amidst ongoing mutual escalation and rising regional tensions linked to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict and Iran's nuclear program. Israel reassesses its defense strategy Israeli reports indicate that the army has initiated an urgent review of the Iron Dome's capabilities. It may also be considering enhancing its defenses with other systems, such as David's Sling, or adopting laser technology in the near future to counter these complex threats.

Government of Pakistan Recommends President Donald J. Trump for 2026 Nobel Peace Prize

SeeNews Press Release Government of Pakistan 21st of June 2025 Government of Pakistan Recommends President Donald J. Trump for 2026 Nobel Peace Prize The Government of Pakistan has decided to formally recommend President Donald J. Trump for the 2026 Nobel Peace Prize, in recognition of his decisive diplomatic intervention and pivotal leadership during the recent India-Pakistan crisis. The international community bore witness to unprovoked and unlawful Indian aggression, which constituted a grave violation of Pakistan's sovereignty and territorial integrity, resulting in the tragic loss of innocent lives, including women, children, and the elderly. In exercising its fundamental right to self-defense, Pakistan launched Operation Bunyanum Marsoos—a measured, resolute, and precise military response, carefully executed to re-establish deterrence and defend its territorial integrity while consciously avoiding civilian harm. Government of Pakistan Recommends President Donald J. Trump for 2026 Nobel Peace Prize The Government of Pakistan has decided to formally recommend President Donald J. Trump for the 2026 Nobel Peace Prize, in recognition of his decisive diplomatic intervention and pivotal… — Government of Pakistan (@GovtofPakistan) June 20, 2025 At a moment of heightened regional turbulence, President Trump demonstrated great strategic foresight and stellar statesmanship through robust diplomatic engagement with both Islamabad and New Delhi which de-escalated a rapidly deteriorating situation, ultimately securing a ceasefire and averting a broader conflict between the two nuclear states that would have had catastrophic consequences for millions of people in the region and beyond. This intervention stands as a testament to his role as a genuine peacemaker and his commitment to conflict resolution through dialogue. The Government of Pakistan also acknowledges and greatly admires President Trump's sincere offers to help resolve the longstanding dispute of Jammu and Kashmir between India and Pakistan—an issue that lies at the heart of regional instability. Durable peace in South Asia would remain elusive until the implementation of United Nations Security Council resolutions concerning Jammu and Kashmir. President Trump's leadership during the 2025 Pakistan India crisis manifestly showcases the continuation of his legacy of pragmatic diplomacy and effective peace-building. Pakistan remains hopeful that his earnest efforts will continue to contribute towards regional and global stability, particularly in the context of ongoing crises in the Middle East, including the humanitarian tragedy unfolding in Gaza and the deteriorating escalation involving Iran.
