      The Iranians are claiming they struck with precision. I rather doubt that.

          Yeah, but hitting a city is hardly precision.

              I heard a few booms but far off. Now a lull so im out with the dog. Last thing I need is the dog peeing in the shelter.

                So to sum up. Nine places where there were impacts. No serious injuries reported. Some scratches from flying glass.

                  Definitely not first world problems.

                  I wonder how many missiles they fired.

                    They are saying 200.

                    Injured now reported at twenty.

                      I've been glued to NYT as they do updates every few minutes. they did not say anything about the extent of Iran's response.

                        It's so easy from an armchair in Ohio to support this. My loved ones are not in the line of fire.

                        Regime change would be a welcome thing, but it would have been more welcome in the 80's or 90's when more of the population remembered the less restrictive pre-revolution Iran.

                        @Mik You should read 'The last Shah' by Ray Takeyh'. Gives a good insight into the historical backgrounds of Iran/Persia.

                              Are the retaliation strikes coming strictly from Iran? Anything from Hezbolah or the Houthis?

                                "As it became clear Israel was about to attack, IRGC air force commanders convened in a bunker to coordinate the response. But Israel knew that emergency protocol, and the location of the bunker. They destroyed it, killing the heads of the drone and air defense forces."

                                    Morning. Tough night last night. One impact direct on a residential neighborhood. Three dead.

                                    But to cheer up the morning, here is a drone being taken out a short time ago

                                        From all the way this side of the Atlantic, I am quite amazed that Israel has all these bunkers that can keep its people safe in times of war.

                                        Haven't read anything about whether Iran's people have bunkers to go into, or any casualty numbers from Iran.

                                        Here in the USA, I don't even know whether there is bunker near me.

                                          There is great unrest in Iran.
