"The Iranian assault on Israel included more than 300 drones, cruise missiles, and ballistic missiles. This is obviously quite a bit more than the 15 ballistic missiles Iran fired at Ayn al-Asad Air Base and Erbil International Airport in retaliation for the U.S. killing of Qassem Suleimani, who led the IRGC’s elite Quds Force, in January 2020. The difference speaks to several points worth considering."
