The cautioning from Iran to Israel is written on the side of a missile. It reads: “Decisive thrive.”
Posters of the political directer of Hamas and the head of Hezbollah – both ended in Israeli strikes – are also plastered on balenumerateic missiles in a slickly created video freed by Iran’s revolutionary protect to state media channels.
The footage purports to show last Tuesday’s revenge aggression on Israel, with multiple munitions then blasting into the sky in a barrage of fire, edited to a religious song included at times of war.
It is impossible to alert if these were among the actual cforfeitly 200 missiles included in the strikes.
But the aim seems to be to exhibit Iran‘s firepower in a fight where words and images are as much of a firearm as bullets and explosions.

Despite the amazeion of destruction created by the three-minute video, Israel says much of the incoming fire was intercepted.
Its military has acunderstandledged that a number of airbases were hit but it deemed the onsgigglet “ineffective”, pointing to how Israeli warschedulees were still able to run afterwards.
A struggleing battle of narratives is frequent in war, with either side needing to transmit the amazeion that they are thrivening think aboutless of the fact.
In the case of Iran’s missile aggression, an Iranian claim that 90% of its munitions struck their concentrates is particularly challenging to apshow, though, given the number of intercepts that were clearly apparent during the aggression.
Yet, an Israeli counterclaim that the harm it suffered was restricted is also impossible to verify without access to the military sites that did suffer impacts.
