Iranian Missiles Strike Nevatim Air Base In Israel

Two new videos have emerged showing Iranian missiles striking Nevatim air base in southern Israel, based on geolocation analysis. This attack comes after Iran previously targeted the same base during a similar incident on April 13.

The videos were filmed from Ar’arat an-Naqab, a town just south of the air base, located in southern Israel’s remote Negev desert. As the camera pans skyward in the videos, numerous rocket trails can be seen falling towards the base, accompanied by the sound of wailing sirens in the background.

In both videos, a single interceptor missile is visible rising from a battery near the base before moving out of frame. The control tower at the air base is also captured in one of the videos as the missiles impact and explode, causing smoke to rise across the base area.

Despite the footage, it remains unclear what specific targets were hit at the base due to the lack of daylight. Following the April 13 attack, Israeli military spokesperson Daniel Hagari confirmed that some of the hundreds of projectiles fired at Israel did hit the base, resulting in minor damage to the infrastructure, including an area near the runway.

Despite the damage, Nevatim air base remained fully operational after the previous attack, as stated by Hagari at the time.
