The trending topic on social media in Lebanon is videos of ballistic missiles streaking across the night sky. The projectiles, fired by Iran at Israel, have provided the dramatic backdrop for parties, dinners, and even a few weddings. Some people sharing these videos are pleased to see attacks on Israel, which declared war on Lebanon last year. Many others are simply relieved that the missiles are headed elsewhere. This is a novel sensation, not just in Lebanon, but across the Arab world. A regional war has broken out, but for once, it doesn't involve Arab countries (at least not yet).

The Israeli army detected a new barrage of missiles from Iran.

The IDF says it has detected a new ballistic missile launch from Iran.

Civilians in areas where the sirens sound are instructed to enter air-raid shelters and remain there until further notice.

Minutes earlier, Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) said it had launched attacks on several Israeli airbases from which attacks against Iran were launched, according to the state-run IRNA news agency.

The attacks on Israeli airbases were carried out “in response to the Israeli regime’s brazen attacks on the holy soil of Islamic Iran,” IRNA reported Tuesday, citing an IRGC statement.

"We also announce that these operations will continue in a sustained, complex, multi-level, and gradual manner," the IRGC said, according to IRNA.

Why Iran Reduced Its Missile Attacks on Israel

The volume of missiles launched from Iranian territory has fallen to its lowest level since the start of the conflict, which experts attribute to the loss of resources and a possible change in strategy.

The Israeli military has destroyed more than 120 surface-to-surface missile launchers, accounting for about a third of Iran’s arsenal, according to military spokeswoman Effie Defrin. The move comes as Israel responds to Iranian missile attacks, which have significantly reduced the intensity of its attacks in recent days. The New York Times reported that Iran significantly reduced the number of missiles fired at Israel overnight Tuesday, marking the lowest level since its airstrikes began.
