Back in June it was estimated that approximately 10% of missiles were able to penetrate the defences.

Do you think this is higher now?

Israeli strikes rock Tehran as Iran's counterattacks widen after the killing of its supreme leader An explosion rocked Iran’s capital as Israel said it would carry out “non-stop strikes” against its leaders and military.

The U.S. military said three service members have been killed and five others seriously wounded since the operations began. They are the first known American casualties from the fighting.

The death of Ali Khamenei is a defining moment in Iran's history.

What comes next is uncertain. But there is now an open path to a different Iran, one that its people may have greater freedom to shape.
I'm in contact with partners, including those in the region that bear the brunt of Iran's military actions, to find practical steps for de-escalation.

With all due respect - seeing this as path to a “different Iran” is lacking education on the role of IRGC in Iran and the fact that the entire system depends on it. Removing supreme leader doesn’t cause this kind of systemic collapse as much one would wish it would.

As journalists working today many of us are taught to recognise disinformation when we see it and fight back against it.

Unfortunately there are some who willingly seek it out and put it on their front pages. A disgrace to the profession.

I believe that the Ukrainian stance is shortsighted, as Trump (and Trumpism) will not last forever while Russia will always be a neighbour (and a potential threat).

Have a good evening.

Thanks for taking the time to answer, and for following the conversation.

I do hope that we (Greeks) will never have to face these harsh dilemmas.

I agree with your points and appreciate that a prolonged war can cloud judgement>
