Recent developments in the Middle East have highlighted the escalating tensions between Iran and Israel. On April 13, Iran launched a significant drone and missile attack on Israel, which has been followed by threats from Iranian military leaders promising even larger attacks. Footage and reports from various sources, including News 12, have documented the challenges faced by drone operators during the Hamas-led terrorist attack on October 7, as well as Hezbollah's monitoring of Israeli military positions. In a rare move, CNN was granted access to an Iranian IRGC base where they were shown the types of missiles and UAVs used in the attacks on Israel. This visit included a look at Shahed missiles and kamikaze UAVs, with a 50% failure rate of these missiles, underscoring the seriousness of the threats posed by Iran's military capabilities.
