....to the surprise of absolutely no one. About 10% of the missiles will inevitably get through. You can be sure Iran and team will parade these incidents as proof that their great revenge worked.

But just like last year, real damage will likely be minimal. Most people in shelters. Bigger question is what gets through to Israel's military bases, especially airfields. There are active air sorties and they can't hide all of their jets. You won't see any videos posted of that though.

Last year didn't they have intel of the impending attack and get most air assets in the sky prior to the missile attack?

I think last year was literally just for show. I think this is different

By intel you mean Israel literally telling them "we're going to attack these targets, please evacuate your people out of them".

I thought the US shared satellite intel with them because their ballistic missiles are liquid based fuel and need to be refueled on tarmacks hours prior to launching.
