On March 24, 2026, following the fall of parts of a missile over a wide geographic area, specialized army units conducted an immediate field survey, collected the debris, and analyzed it. The results showed that the missile was a guided ballistic missile of the “Qadr-110” type, manufactured in Iran. It is approximately 16 meters long, has a range of about 2,000 km, and carries several small-sized submunitions.

It exploded at a high altitude, suggesting that its intended target was outside Lebanese territory. The cause of the explosion is likely either a technical malfunction or interception by another missile.
