— I don’t like that the launches are sporadic and not simultaneous, obviously it will be much less effective.

It’s probably for defensive reasons. Quickly leaving the tunnels, launching, and retreating—which makes sense to preserve assets, but still.

Decentralized command structure has its advantages (continuous fire & low asset losses) but certainly also its disadvantages (less concentrated firepower), so I guess it’s a tradeoff.

I think the Iranian doctrine is ‘we’ll keep firing, and at some point they’ll run out and we will get through’, which is true, but then you do need to keep firing (i.e. continuing the war for real).

— 🇮🇱/🇮🇷 NEW: In the past 5 hours, Iran launched three more waves of missiles towards Israel, and the IDF also carried out another wave of strikes in Iran

In addition to these exchanges, enemy drones were shot down by Iranian air defenses, according to Mehr News.

The situation has now calmed down, and Khatam Al-Anbiyaa Central Command has announced that operations have ended unless Israel commits further aggression.
