It's interesting to compare this Guardian article, which states that it was a major failure on Iran's part, and [0] which states that the attack was meant to be largely symbolic and designed to be stopped - e.g. they gave hours (apparently 72) of notice, they didn't launch suddenly from their proxy/allies in closer countries.<p>I'd also be curious how much $ in munitions it cost Iran vs. how much it cost to stop the attack.<p>I hope this doesn't escalate.<p>[0] <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2024/04/14/middleeast/iran-israel-attack-drones-analysis-intl" rel="nofollow">https://www.cnn.com/2024/04/14/middleeast/iran-israel-attack...</a>
