Update 5:12:PM Jerusalem Daylight Time: According to intel source @OSINT613 which has been very reliable and has his finger on the pulse of Israeli military affairs, Israel Aerospace Industries has refuted claims of a missile interceptor shortage. Yair Katz, Chairman of the Aerospace Workers Union, called the Financial Times report "inaccurate," asserting that Israel has an ample stockpile to endure a prolonged multi-front conflict. "I don’t know who is behind this article, but it’s either reckless or a deliberate attempt to undermine the State of Israel," Katz remarked, criticizing the journalists involved for playing into the hands of Israel's adversaries.
