The dust has finally settled following Iran's final missile salvo before the commencement of the ceasefire.

Iranian media says Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei ordered all IRGC Aerospace Forces units to halt their missile fire. Meanwhile the US paused their attacks on Iran a few hours ago.

Israel launced a final wave of airstrikes on ballistic missile facilities and other military sites in Ahvaz, Dezful, Andimeshk, Khorramabad, Shahrekord, Kermanshah, and southern Tehran, but for now it has ceased all strikes on Iran and Lebanon.

The Iranians fired at least 13 ballistic missiles at Israel and the GCC, although I suspect at the number is higher. They also launched drones and several cruise missiles. Sirens were heard in Jordan, Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, UAE (Dubai & Abu Dhabi), and Saudi Arabia (Yanbu, Riyadh, & Al-Kharj).

Iran fired its ballistic missiles from launch bases in Isfahan, Shiraz, Shahrebabak, Damavand, and perhaps from sites in western Iran. At least 7 missiles reached Israel, with 3 of them being intercepted, 1 hitting an open area in the center, and 3 BMs with cluster warheads around Haifa, Gush Dan, and Be'er Sheva.

Submunitions from the cluster BM that dispersed over Gush Dan impacted in Petah Tikvah and Bnei Brak. There was minor damage from submunitions or fragments in Haifa. In the south, 2 impacts were reported in Be'er Sheva, 3 in Tel Sheva, and 1 in Omer.

Besides unverified rumors, not much is known about the damage incurred by the Gulf states. However, the Abu Dhabi media office did confirm that authorities are dealing with fires at the Habshan gas processing facility.
