US-Israel war with Iran: Do the gulf states have enough interceptor missiles?
About this episode
The episode discusses the military conflict involving the US, Israel, and Iran, focusing on missile defense capabilities in the Gulf states.
On Saturday 28th February, the US and Israel launched a military attack on Iran, targeting the country's missile infrastructure, military sites and leadership. In response, Iran launched a wave of strikes across the region, including on Israel and the Gulf states. Iran has a stockpile of ballistic missiles, which it’s firing at neighbouring countries. These countries in turn are using interceptor missiles to try and shoot them down. But is it clear who will run out of missiles first?
