Iran has continued launching missile strikes on Israel even after losing top military commanders, surprising Israeli defense officials. According to U.S. analyst Trita Parsi, Israel underestimated Iran’s ability to recover and maintain operational control. Iranian missiles have reportedly breached multiple layers of Israel’s air defense. Early Monday, fresh attacks on Tel Aviv and Haifa killed at least five people and injured many more. The Middle East remains tense as both nations engage in ongoing, deadly exchanges of fire.
