The main threats to the Israeli state are the terrorist organizations of Hamas in the core Gaza Strip and the West Bank as well as Hezbollah in South Lebanon. Both are trained and supported by Iran’s intelligence services and Armed Forces. Its arsenal is highly upgraded and especially that of Hezbollah is qualitatively upgraded since the 2006 war including even anti-ship missiles against Israeli Navy ships.
The editorial staff of The Liberal Globe has put together some interesting charts that describe and analyze with charts and scope the arsenals of both Hamas and Hezbollah.
As you can see the ranges of both Hamas and Hezbollah’s rockets and missiles are not of a terrorist organization with a few hundred armed fighters but an arsenal of a regular army.
It is also a given that even such a powerful Israeli air defense with a multitude of modern anti-aircraft and anti-ballistic systems cannot intercept a massive saturation missile attack.
The ways of storing, guarding, hiding and protecting the rockets in Gaza and South Lebanon are also of great interest. The majority of both Hamas and Hezbollah sites are underground galleries and tunnels deep within the earth.
