Iran’s Cluster Bomb Blitz Targets Israeli Hospital, Civvy Hubs

The IDF has the receipts: Iran unleashed a cluster munition on Israel, and it’s as ugly as it sounds.

 
Here’s the deal: the missile’s warhead was packed with mini-bombs, like cluster bombs used in Vietnam, each lugging 2.5 kg of boom. At 7 km up, it cracked open like a piñata from hell, scattering its payload across an 8 km radius. The Home Front Command dropped the bombshell Thursday, confirming one of Iran’s morning missiles was a cluster job.

 
“The missile’s warhead held several small munitions, each one with 2.5 kg of explosives,” they said. This thing wasn’t messing around, it split at 7 km altitude, flinging its deadly confetti far and wide. The Command says it’s a known beast, designed to detonate on impact.

 
Ground zero was above Azor, just southeast of Tel Aviv. Some of these mini-bombs were duds, which is somehow worse, unexploded ordnance just chilling, ready to ruin someone’s day. “The public is asked not to approach them and to immediately call a bomb disposal team,” the Command stressed. 

Thursday’s barrage was a monster as dozens of missiles raining down, smashing Soroka Hospital and buildings in Tel Aviv, Holon, and Ramat Gan. Israel’s defense systems was able to intercept some, but this was the biggest salvo in the last 48 hours. Magen David Adom tallied 95 injuries in Gush Dan, six critical. They could also use our support as they're saving lives.

The cops released footage from the Ramat Gan stock exchange complex, and it’s grim. Buildings look like they got hit by a wrecking ball—a three-story structure and a high-rise office tower across from it, both mangled. Firefighters and police were all over it, busting into apartments to pull out trapped residents. Some doors got kicked in ‘cause time wasn’t on their side.

Iran’s playing dirty, and Israel’s picking up the pieces.

Caught! Incompetent terrorist behind Tel Aviv bus bombing and Jewish Israeli driver arrested

The terrorist who didn't know A.M. from P.M. and placed a bomb on a bus in Bat Yam, south of Tel Aviv two weeks ago, has been caught and in Israeli custody. The Israeli bus driver who transported him was also arrested and charged on Thursday.

The suspect, who was inside the Green Line illegally, was arrested shortly after the failed February 20th attack.

A Jewish Israeli from Holon transported the terrorist to the scene, authorities revealed and is possibly a self-loathing individual who was willing to kill Jews. However, he claimed that he was unaware of the terrorist's intentions and simply drove him for payment. It seems likely to me, however, that the terrorist would have killed him to keep him from blowing his plot, but then again, the terrorist isn't Mensa meeting material.

 Another suspect, a Bat Yam taxi driver, has been released to house arrest.

The main suspect was initially held in an Israel Security Agency (Shin Bet) facility and later transferred to the Israel Prison Service. He has complained about harsh detention conditions, claiming he is held in darkness and denied proper treatment, much like a Hamas hostage. But at least he isn't being raped and later killed for sport.

Authorities continue to investigate possible accomplices. Bomb maker, "Two-finger Farhan," may be involved but this is not certain. However, "One-Arm Ahmed" is a better possibility.

Three buses exploded near Tel Aviv and bombs were found on two others on the night of Feb. 20 in what is being investigated as a coordinated attack. Had it not been carried out by a veritable moron, many Israelis would have likely perished in the carnage.

All of the explosions occurred in parked, empty buses across Bat Yam. There were no injuries thanks to the incompetence of the terrorist.

At least one of the bombs bore a note, in Arabic and Hebrew, that stated “Revenge from the Tulkarem refugee camp,” a reference to the town in the West Bank where Israeli security forces have been conducting operations.

Five explosive devices, all with timers set to go off simultaneously, were found in what was intended to be a “strategic terrorist attack,” Channel 12 cited security sources as saying.

Two additional buses in nearby Holon were discovered with identical bombs that thankfully failed to detonate.

An Israeli commuter—26-year-old Adi Jegna—notified the driver of a suspicious package on her bus to Bat Yam, which turned out to be a bomb. He let the passengers off, drove to a safe place, and exited the bus. Moments later, the bomb exploded, destroying the bus.
