@Middle_East_Spectator

— All jokes aside, Iran really does not have 'proxies' like people assume

This is a Western way of thinking, in which one political player is the hegemon, and the other its servant, lacking any agency of its own.

The Axis of Resistance is a system of carefully funded and crafted allies, based on a common ideology and common political goals, despite the fact that there are slight differences.

Hezbollah, Ansarullah, Hamas, PIJ, Syria and the PMU all have their own domestic interests, but they work together in a wider framework to achieve common goals, in this case the resistance against Israel, which is seen as a fundamental threat to the region.

The only country that has proxies is the United States, which uses young Ukrainians as meat shields against Russia, and funds extremist groups with totally different ideologies to carry out its dirty tasks.

— 🇮🇷/🇴🇲 The Grand Mufti of Oman, Ahmad bin Hamad Al-Khalili, praised Iran's attack on Israel:

'What was reported in the media regarding the Islamic Republic of Iran’s response to the Zionist entity - following its aggression against its consulate and the killing of some of its people - with this bold response; This is something that really pleases the mind, and hopefully it will bear fruit soon.

Hence, we applaud this step and others like it, which we hope will preserve the nation’s forces’ prestige and presence. Evil must have a deterrent, otherwise it will become more widespread. We hope that this has caused pain to Zionism and those who support it, and we look forward to something that will break their power, repel their plots in their throats, and rid the Muslims of their evil.

While we thank God Almighty for granting success to this; We call on the entire nation to take the initiative in supporting the oppressed in Gaza and Palestine, and not to be satisfied with partial actions. This is part of the preparation of strength that God Almighty commanded in His saying: “And prepare for them what you are able."

— 🇮🇷 WATCH: Iranian 'Kheybar Shekan' ballistic missile carries out an evasive maneuvre in its final stage

One second before impact, the missile carries out an evasive maneuvre by quickly boosting upwards and then down again.

Only a few of these missiles were used, but its shows the sophistication of Iran's missiles, and why they got through.

@Middle_East_Spectator

It's a bit difficult to see, but if you watch closely you can catch it.

🇺🇳🇨🇳🇮🇷 Israel violated international law by attacking the Iranian consulate. Iran reacted and exercised its legal right (c) China's representative to the UN.

@medmannews

— NOTE: There are signs that the Israelis and Americans are vastly overstating the amount of missiles Iran actually used

This is to make the Iron Dome, Arrow & David Sling seem more effective than they actually are, and to paint Iranian missiles as ineffective.

Today, they claimed that more than 50% of Iran's missiles failed to launch, or landed in territories outside of Israel. This is merely a weak excuse to hide the fact that they deliberately overstated the numbers.

In reality, Iran likely only launched dozens of ballistic missiles, the vast majority of which were low-cost and old models without MaRV capability, used mainly as decoys to distract Israeli defenses.

The small amount of more advanced missiles which Iran did launch, almost all of them penentrated the Israeli defenses and struck their targets in the Negev and Golan.

It will all become clearer when the IRGC releases the official details of Operation True Promise.
