Iron Dome
Israeli defense system
Iron Dome is Israel's mobile air defense system, designed to intercept and destroy short-range rockets and artillery shells.
Deployed since 2011, it tracks incoming projectiles and fires interceptor missiles to neutralize threats before they reach populated areas.
The system has become central to Israeli security and a symbol of defensive military technology: Iron Dome intercepted dozens of rockets during the barrage.
