Iran Threatens New Missile Strikes Against Israel
Updated June 16, 2025
Iran is preparing to launch a new wave of missile strikes against Israel, heightening tensions already strained by recent exchanges. iranian military sources, as reported by Russian agency EADaily, issued a warning urging Israeli civilians to seek immediate shelter, suggesting attacks are imminent. This follows ”Operation True Promise III,” Iran’s retaliation for Israeli strikes on military and nuclear facilities.
This next phase of conflict may involve new tactics. iranian and Russian analysts claim Iran successfully compromised Israel’s Iron Dome system during recent missile exchanges,using targeted electronic warfare to disable interceptors.This claim has stirred debate in defense circles.
Sputnik International reported that Iran used a combination of decoy drones, hypersonic warheads, and electromagnetic interference to reduce Iron Dome’s interception rate. Yuri Knutov, a Russian defense analyst, said the jamming confused Iron Dome’s radar and fire-control systems, leading to friendly-fire scenarios and failed intercepts. These figures have not been independently verified by Western sources.

Authorities have reinforced air-raid shelters and advised civilians to stay alert. Israel confirmed that 14 civilians died from Iranian missile impacts, with over 300 injured. A refinery in Haifa was struck, and debris was reported near the Dimona nuclear site. Flights into Ben Gurion Airport were temporarily halted.
The Times of israel reported multiple Iron Dome failures in southern regions during Iran’s second wave of missile attacks. Analysts suggest that if jamming claims hold weight, they may change future Israeli reliance on radar-dependent systems.
Iran’s Revolutionary Guard claimed it deployed a “new method” that caused Israel’s multi-layered air-defense systems—including Iron Dome—to target one another during the latest missile barrage, allowing several projectiles to penetrate and strike cities like Tel Aviv and Haifa, according to Associate Press. Onmanorama’s Reuters summary corroborates this assertion, reporting that missiles “breach(ed) Israel’s ‘iron Dome’ air defence system,” striking residential areas and prompting panic and shelter usage in central Israel.
While Israeli officials maintain that Iron Dome’s overall interception rate remains high—above 80%—the admission of breached missiles underscores a critical vulnerability during sustained saturation attacks that combine ballistic warheads, decoys, drones, and possible electronic interference.
Turkey, China, and Russia have condemned recent Israeli airstrikes targeting Iranian civilian areas. i24News reported that Russia and china denounced the attacks during an emergency UN session, calling them violations of Iranian sovereignty and urging restraint. Reuters confirmed that Russian President vladimir Putin and Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan jointly condemned Israel’s use of force in a phone call, advocating for an immediate cessation of hostilities.
Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, pledged severe retaliation in response to Israeli strikes. In a televised address, he warned that Iran would not show leniency and that Israel “will not walk away unharmed.” attempts by the United Nations to broker a ceasefire have faltered; a proposed Security Council resolution condemning Israeli attacks on Iranian territory was reportedly blocked by the United States, despite support from Russia and Algeria.
What’s next
With Israel on alert and Iran promising further action,the Middle East is hurtling toward a broader regional war. Hezbollah in Lebanon and Shia militias in Iraq have already declared high alert. Syria and Jordan have closed their airspace, citing security risks.
