| Netanyahu vows total victory
In one of the heaviest attacks since the war began, Iran unleashed a mᴀssive wave of missiles and drones on Israel on March 16, 2026, leaving parts of the country devastated and triggering over 9,000 damage claims from civilians and businesses.
The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) fired hundreds of projectiles as part of “Operation True Promise 4,” targeting Tel Aviv, Haifa, Jerusalem suburbs, and military installations. Air raid sirens blared for hours as the blasts echoed across central and northern Israel. While Israel’s multi-layered defense system—Iron Dome, David’s Sling, and Arrow—blocked most threats, some missiles did get through, causing significant damage to residential buildings, infrastructure, and commercial properties.
