Recent data from INSS highlight Iran's response through ballistic missile and drone strikes across several countries in the Middle East, following the joint U.S.-Israel air attacks.
The United Arab Emirates appears as the most targeted location, with an estimated 863 missiles and drones, followed by Kuwait with 562. Qatar recorded around 162 incidents, Bahrain 129, and Israel 113, while Jordan reported 49. Smaller figures were registered in Cyprus (5), Oman (2), and Saudi Arabia (2).
The geographic pattern is closely tied to regional military infrastructure. Countries such as Bahrain, Qatar, Kuwait, and the UAE host major U.S. and allied military bases, making them central nodes in the region's defense network. Many of the incoming missiles and drones were intercepted by air defense systems, yet the scale of launches highlights the growing role of high-volume drone and missile warfare in modern conflicts.
