Israeli army says it destroyed long-range Iranian missile in Lebanon

An Israeli air strike in Lebanon on Monday destroyed at least one long-range Iranian missile capable of hitting Tel Aviv, according to Brig. Gen. Ram Shmueli, head of the IAF's intelligence division. The Israeli aircraft targeted a truck carrying the weapons before they could be launched.

 

The force of the blast sent at least one missile flying into the air, but it fell nearby. Lebanese news agencies mistook this for a falling IDF F-16. (AP, Hanan Greenberg)
