Iranian Follow-On Missile or Drone Probes Against Israeli Airbases After Ramat David Strike
Theater: Israel
Time horizon: 24h

Moderate confidence (65%)
Risk direction: escalatory · Impact: HIGH
Executive summary
Over the next 24 hours, Iran is likely to conduct limited follow-on missile or drone probes against Israeli air facilities or radar/EW nodes to reinforce the message of vulnerability after the Ramat David strike. These will probably be small-scale, precision attacks or attempted penetrations rather than mass salvos, calibrated to maintain leverage while ceasefire diplomacy continues. The targets most at risk are secondary airbases, radar sites, or logistics depots in northern and central Israel. Confirmation would be new intercept activity, impact footage, or Israeli NOTAM/airspace restrictions around airbases; disconfirmation would be a complete halt in cross-border strikes combined with explicit Iranian messaging that the air campaign is over.
