Celebrations erupted in Iran and parts of the Muslim world after Iran boasted of its missile strike against Israel, although the IDF said most of the projectiles were intercepted. Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) claimed that 90% of the 180 ballistic missiles fired hit their intended targets, while the IDF said it intercepted a 'large number' of the missiles. US National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan called the attack 'defeated and ineffective' and promised consequences for Iran. The IRGC threatened to carry out 'crushing attacks' against Israel if it retaliates.
