Conclusion!
More Israeli Iron Dome stuff. Iron Dome Israeli air defense against rocket artillery rounds.
Iron Dome in response to massive bombardment of rocket artillery not as effective as desired. Many rocket artillery rounds intercepted but not ALL! See previous blog entry also the topic Iron Dome.
From Sputnik an article the effectiveness of Iron Dome questioned.
"Former Military Explains Why Iron Dome Failed to Intercept All Rockets From Gaza"
"A massive missile attack coming from Gaza struck Israel early on 4 May with 690 rockets launched over the course of the next 48 hours, the IDF [Israeli Defense Forces] reported. Although many missiles were intercepted by the Iron Dome system, some made it through leading to casualties."
"In an interview with The Jerusalem Post former head of Military Intelligence's Research Department, Yaakov Amidror revealed that the Iron Dome defence system wasn't able to intercept all the missiles launched from Gaza due to a number of reasons."
As to that "number of reasons" the devoted followers to the blog and those perusing merely incidentally must read it all for themselves.
NEVER EXPECT A DEFENSIVE SYSTEM TO BE 100 % EFFECTIVE 100 % OF THE TIME!
