Iran israel war: Iran-Israeli war is now seen taking a dangerous attitude. On Thursday (June 19, 2025), the missile fired by Iran on Thursday (June 19, 2025) has raised concerns about cluster bombs, it is a weapon known to cause serious harm to people.
The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) have confirmed that at least one project launched as part of the barrage had a cluster bomb warhead, which is the first case of using such weapons in the war of both countries so far.
What is a cluster bomb?
The cluster bomb is a weapon designed to leave small bombs or submunitions in a large area. It opens in the middle air instead of exploding at once. It spreads many small explosives in a wide target from a quite a height. In the June 19 attack of Iran, the Israeli army said that the missile’s warhead exploded about seven kilometers above the ground, leaving about 20 submunitions within an 8 -kilometer radius in Central Israel. These arms are not directed or self-proclaimed. These are made to explode effectively.
Why are cluster bombs controversial?
The cluster bomb fails to burst several times after falling, so they remain active. In such a situation, there may be a serious threat to those citizens who come inadvertently or in contact with them.
What was the loss in Israel?
Bombs from Iranian missiles damaged a house in Ajor city of Israel. According to the report of The Times of Israel, no immediate information was received about the casualties.
The Israeli Home Front Command posted on X and appealed to the people to be vigilant. Said that this morning we experienced a missile attack which was capable of spreading small weapons in a relatively broad area. It is possible that some bombs stay on the ground and do not burst. In such a situation, do not touch any fallen item and call 100 numbers immediately.
