In retaliation for an Israeli air strike on Iran's consular offices in Syria Iran has launched 100-200 missile and drones at Israel.
Iran telegraphed the attack and launched mostly slow moving assets. Virtually all of the missiles and drones appear to have been shot down by Israeli, US and Jordanian forces.
The question is what happens next?
There are reports that an Iranian spokesman has said the the "matter can be considered concluded" unless there is more violence.
So far Iranian proxies such as Hezbollah in Lebanon and militias in the West Bank don't appear to have participated in the attack. Hamas, in Gaza, is pretty much in tatters already.
The ball may be in Israel's court. Hopefully they'll let the matter drop but I somehow doubt it.
