The Israeli military has raised alarms over a recent missile strike from Iran, which reportedly involved a missile equipped with multiple warheads. Such technology presents a significant challenge to existing air defense systems, particularly Israel's highly regarded Iron Dome.

The introduction of multiple warheads means that defense forces must now contend with tracking and intercepting several targets from a single missile launch, complicating response efforts and strategic defense measures.

No independent analysis of the missile has yet been conducted, leaving the scope of the threat somewhat uncertain at this stage.
