Israeli media says +100 casualties, with many dead, and many still trapped and lost
Two Iranian attacks on Dimona and Arad: An entire neighborhood destroyed, with deaths and hundreds wounded.
Israeli media reported fatalities and injuries to more than 120 Israelis, as well as damage to and collapse of several buildings, and people trapped under rubble in the Arad and Dimona areas of southern Israel, following two successive missile attacks from Iran. Sirens wailed across a wide area stretching from the Negev in the south to the Galilee in the north.
Israeli emergency services stated that the number of injured had risen to 51 after the Iranian missile struck Dimona. Channel 12 reported that injuries occurred in 12 locations in the Dimona area due to missile and shrapnel impacts, while Israeli radio confirmed the collapse of a building in the same area after it was directly hit by an Iranian missile.
The mayor of Dimona confirmed to Israeli radio that injuries were reported as a result of rockets falling in several areas within the city. Channel 12 reported successful aerial interceptions of a number of rockets and news of injuries from shrapnel falling in the Dimona area of southern Israel.
The International Atomic Energy Agency confirmed that no damage occurred at the Israeli Dimona nuclear site after the Iranian projectile was launched toward the area.

Second attack in Arad
Hours after the initial attack, Iranian state television announced a new barrage of missiles launched toward Israel. This second wave resulted in a missile directly hitting an area in the southern city of Arad, damaging 20 buildings, according to the Israeli newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth, including four that collapsed completely.
The Israeli Broadcasting Corporation confirmed that the Iranian shelling of Arad destroyed an entire neighborhood and caused the highest number of casualties since the start of the war.

I saw yesterday on twitter that some random account said the 82nd airborne received an 48 hour notice for deployment. It got a lot of attention but there wasn’t any other credible sources to justify a forum post… until today.
Former CNN/MSNBC Anchor. The 82nd has received deployment orders. IMO They might drop a part of the 82nd on Kharg Island.
As mentioned by another poster, what we see is what the israeli government is willing to leak out, we don't get to see the military targets they hit because of the censorship. It might be an attempt to drum up sympathy but it might have the opposite effect after almost 3 years of people seeing them execute children in Gaza.
Not unlike how every strike in Ukraine somehow seems to only hit schools, hospitals or apartments according to the Kiev. And it goes as far as western commercial satellite companies putting 2 weeks moratoriums on the purchase of updated images of the region.
Anyway, the Iranians are claiming they have figured out most of Israel's air defense has been depleted, so they'll be "starting a new phase", whatever that means
Somewhat answers your question.
Someone has brains here. Thank you for being an adult.
You only think this because the censorship is heavy on the real vital targets . No way Isr would let the true damage come out.
they tried with the hits on Haifa oil but you cant deny plumes of black smoke.
you have to loom beyond imagery to know whats been really hit.
But that doesn't answer why Iran even fired at those targets in the first place. I understand that there is censorship especially on important targets and they release footages on civilian targets but Iran still have to decide to fire at that vicinity in the first place and I want to hear some potential reasonings for it that I might be missing.
That is a possible reason
