IDF: Iran Launched Missiles with Banned Cluster Bomb Warheads at Israel

• IDF revealed nearly half of 300 ballistic missiles launched by Iran at Israel carried cluster bomb warheads.
• Most missiles were intercepted, but one with a large warhead exploded in an open area outside Beit Shemesh; no injuries reported.
• Cluster bomb warheads indiscriminately spread submunitions and are banned by the 2008 Convention on Cluster Munitions, which Israel, Iran, and the US have not signed.
• The attacks are Iran's response to a US-Israel bombing campaign, escalating the West Asia conflict and impacting global energy supplies.
• IDF also conducted strikes on Hezbollah assets in Lebanon, eliminating commander Hassan Salameh, and targeted command centers in Tehran and Tabriz.
