A passenger aboard an Emirates flight captured dramatic images of ballistic missiles launched from Iran toward Israel as the aircraft flew over Iraq en route to Dubai.
Extraordinary footage taken by a passenger on an Emirates Airlines flight en route to Dubai shows what appears to be a mass launch of ballistic missiles by Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) early this morning.
The aircraft was flying over Iraqi airspace when bright streaks lit up the night sky, rising in coordinated succession from Iranian territory. The video captures multiple launches within seconds, illustrating the scale and intensity of the barrage directed at Israel.
The rare vantage point from a commercial airliner provides a striking visual of the operation, highlighting both the reach of Iran’s missile capabilities and the broader regional implications of the attack. The launches come amid heightened tensions between Tehran and Jerusalem, as Iran continues to escalate its direct military involvement.
