    Very probably, indeed. And most, if not all, would be intercepted by the iron dome. I also doubt they have the required range.

    I wonder if their Iranian sponsors could.

      The Iron Dome’s weakness has been demonstrated by Hamas. Just lob enough trash at it to overwhelm it. But firing a ton of low-cost projectiles means they won’t be accurate whatsoever.

      Iran hit an israeli airbase with their missiles in April even with all the advance warnings so it’s likely they could bypass the Iron Dome.
