The Israel Democracy Institute reports that 93% of the Jewish public favours the ongoing military campaign against Tehran. Professor Tamar Hermann attributes this unity to effective air defences stopping up to 90% of incoming projectiles. Although restrictions are easing, sirens still sound and ten people have died during the conflict. Prime Minister Netanyahu previously ordered strikes in June that damaged Iranian nuclear and military capabilities.
