Only 65% of the missiles launched by Iran in the last 24 hours were intercepted by the country's Iron Dome missile defense system, compared with almost 90% a day earlier. This was reported by NBC News with reference to a former senior Israeli intelligence official.

The Arrow system intercepts long-range missiles at higher altitudes; the David’s Sling system intercepts them at lower altitudes; while the Iron Dome takes out shorter-range rockets, usually fired from Gaza, or the fragments of missiles already intercepted by other defense systems.
