There is an advanced air defense system (Air Space) called Iron Dome near Israel. It was developed to protect against attacks such as rockets and artillery shells. It works in all weather conditions. Because of this arrangement, Israel’s capability in defense strategy has increased. Hezbollah Terrorist, a militant group supported by Iran, rained rockets on Israel which is a strong country. So Israel activated Iron Dome again on Monday to stop this attack. Recently, after the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) bombarded the Iranian-backed militant group’s hideouts in Lebanon, Hezbollah militants launched a counterattack.
What does the Iron Dome defense look like?
Israel’s Iron Dome system is designed to protect populated areas and important locations to prevent attacks by low-powered rockets. The Iron Dome has managed to intercept thousands of rockets fired from Lebanon by Hezbollah.
Air warning sirens are on, anticipating missiles and drones launched by Hezbollah across Haifa and Carmel in the north of the country. The Israeli military hereby warns its citizens.

What is Israel’s Iron Dome?
In October 2023, when the Palestinian militant group Hamas launched a surprise attack on Israel, thousands of rockets and missiles were fired from Gaza. At that time, the Iron Dome defense system faced deadly attacks and saved many civilians.
Israel’s Iron Dome system is designed to protect populated areas and important locations from low energy rocket attacks. This iron dome is used to track the speed and target of incoming rockets in airspace. It is also useful in destroying those rockets and missiles in the air.
It was first used in 2011
The first battery of this defense system was deployed in 2011 near the southern city of Beerseva. It was used to counter Soviet-designed Grad rockets fired from Hamas-Palestinian territory 40 kilometers (25 miles) from the Gaza Strip. Israel currently has at least 10 such batteries.
How does Iron Dome work?
Iron dome is considered to be the most advanced defense system. It uses radar to detect and destroy incoming rockets and missiles in the air.
It helps shoot down the primary weapons from low-intensity rockets fired from Gaza. Each battery of Iron Dome has a radar detection and tracking system, a fire control system and three launchers for 20 interceptor missiles.
