Rocket Trails Over Netanya — Iran Fires 4 Missile Salvos Overnight

CBS News photographs confirmed rocket trails visible over Netanya, Israel's coastal city north of Tel Aviv, on Day 9. Times of Israel reported 4 Iranian missile salvos aimed at Israel since midnight — a significant decline from the 12 salvos recorded overnight on Day 8. The declining salvo rate is consistent with ongoing analysis suggesting Iran's ballistic missile stocks and mobile launcher numbers are being depleted by sustained US-Israeli strikes on missile production sites and launch infrastructure. IDF air defence systems remained active across the night. The Netanya sightings — north of Tel Aviv — indicate Iranian missiles are targeting the Israeli heartland rather than border areas, attempting to strike population centres and maintain psychological pressure on the Israeli home front despite the degraded launch rate. IDF has not confirmed any successful impacts or casualties from overnight salvos.
