Tensions between Iran and Israel have taken a serious turn. For the first time, Iran has fired a hypersonic missile directly at Israel, according to a report from Iranian state television, as cited by international news agency AFP.
Iran says its missile, named Fattah, successfully broke through Israel’s advanced air defense systems a move that, if confirmed, marks a powerful escalation in the ongoing hostilities.
