Iran has fired a total of approximately 950 ballistic missiles at Israel since February 28 and launched 550 attack drones at the Jewish state, according to a study by the Institute for National Security Studies (INSS).

Some 1,550 missiles have also been fired at Iran’s Muslim-majority neighbors, including the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Jordan, Turkey, Iraq and Oman. In addition, more than 5,600 Iranian drone attacks were reported outside of Israel.

Missile attacks on Israel constitute about 40% of all Iranian missile attacks during the current war, and when drone attacks are factored in, just 17% of weapons platforms launched by Iran were directed at Israel.

Of the 950 missiles launched towards Israel in roughly 340 barrages, only 380 missiles managed to cross the border into Israeli airspace.

The interception rate of missiles launched at Israel has been 92% thus far, higher than the rate (86%) recorded during the Twelve-Day War last June.

Thus far, it is estimated that the US and Israel have killed more than 6,000 soldiers from the Iranian military and militia members of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. In addition, more than 50 senior Iranian officials have been assassinated.

The US and Israel have destroyed nearly three-quarters of Iran’s ballistic missile launchers, leaving some 120 launchers intact out of 450 in Iran’s arsenal before the war.

Some 130 Iranian military vessels have been sunk, and seven major nuclear facilities have been bombed.

Israeli forces operating against Hezbollah have killed over 600 terrorists in Lebanon, including some 220 members of Hezbollah’s elite Radwan Force, 150 mid-level operatives, and 36 senior officers.

More than 2,000 targets have been struck thus far, including 120 command-and-control centers, more than 100 weapons depots, and 130 missile launchers.

Twenty-five days into the fighting, casualties in Israel have lower than the numbers reported during the Twelve-Day War.

While 33 people, including 32 civilians, were killed in last June’s war, with more than 3,200 wounded, the casualties thus far in Israel have been roughly half the number in the previous conflict with Iran.

Sixteen people have been killed, most of them in a single attack on Beit Shemesh, with 1,595 people treated following attacks, including 1,327 who were physically injured and 268 who suffered from anxiety attacks.

Of the 1,327 who were physically injured, 917 were injured while rushing to bomb shelters, with nearly two dozen more injured in road accidents which occurred during air raid sirens.

A total of 407 people were wounded in missile attacks, including 16 who were fatally wounded, 19 who were seriously wounded, 33 who were moderately wounded, and 339 who were listed in light condition.
