BEIRUT (Dispatches) -- An Israeli official has confirmed that the Zionist regime’s drones worth “hundreds of millions” of dollars have gone missing in Iran during its aggression against the Islamic Republic.
The regime’s Yedioth Ahronoth paper carried a report, citing the official, who said the invading unmanned aerial vehicles had “disappeared” within the Iranian territory.
Meanwhile, the city of Bat Yam in the Israeli-occupied territories looks like the destroyed areas in the Gaza Strip in the aftermath of Iran’s retaliatory strikes, according to Israeli Hebrew-language media.
The daily Calcalist reported that according to new data, approximately 18,000 people have been evacuated from homes destroyed by Iran’s missile attacks.
Of these, 12,000 have been relocated to hotels while the remainder have been housed in rental apartments.
Analyses reveal that four cities—including Bat Yam, Tel Aviv, Rehovot, and Ramat Gan—were severely damaged by Iran’s missile attacks, while a critical shortage of available housing plagues displaced settlers.
Earlier, Bat Yam’s mayor, Tzvika Brot, disclosed the extensive damage resulting from Iran’s missile attacks on the city.
Speaking to Israeli Channel 10, Brot characterized the assault as “the harshest blow in the city’s history,” revealing that a 120-dunam (about 40-acre) residential area was entirely wiped out.
The mayor emphasized that the single-day Iranian bombardment produced destruction on an unprecedented scale, noting this now stands as the most catastrophic attack ever witnessed across the occupied lands, not just in Bat Yam.
Estimates suggest the destruction caused by Iran’s strikes will drive mid-term spikes in housing prices.
According to reports from real estate offices in northern Tel Aviv, there is insufficient apartment inventory in the area, leaving uncertainty over where displaced families will relocate.
The Israeli regime launched its unprovoked aggression on the Islamic Republic on June 13, with American backing, assassinating several top-ranking military commanders, scientists, and many other ordinary civilians, including women and children.
On the same day, Iranian armed forces, spearheaded by the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC), launched an unprecedented retaliatory campaign against the Israeli regime known as Operation True Promise III.
As the Iranian armed forces pounded Israel and its military and industrial infrastructure, using many new-generation missiles that precisely hit the designated targets, the embattled regime was forced to unilaterally cease its aggression against Iran on June 24.
Following the unilateral move, Iran too, halted its retaliatory campaign after carrying out 22 waves of successful attacks against the Israeli-occupied territories.
The Israeli health ministry confirmed 29 fatalities and 3,238 injuries from the Iranian retaliatory attacks, though observers say the figure is likely to be much higher due to Israel’s history of censoring casualty statistics.
