Footage from the site of an Israeli airstrike on the Hamedan Province of Western Iran earlier today shows the destruction of several trucks which appear to have been carrying ballistic missiles. The trucks, actually transporter erector launchers (TELs), appear to have been disguised as ordinary cargo trucks, a tactic which has regularly been used by both the Houthis in Yemen and Hezbollah in Lebanon, taught by Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC). These trucks allow the Houthis, Hezbollah, and the IRGC to “shoot-and-scoot” in minutes or less, making it extremely difficult for the launchers to be targeted and destroyed by the Israeli Air Force.
Daylight reveals a much clearer image of the impact site in Bat Yam, to the south of Tel-Aviv, where the death toll currently sits at 4 and the injuries at over 200, while around 35 are believed to still be missing beneath the rubble. Search-and-rescue teams with IDF Homefront Command, ZAKA, and other first responders continue to work around the clock to find any survivors.
