Israel, a country known for its robust defense technology, recently found itself at the center of online rumors claiming that its “Iron Beam” laser weapon system had been deployed in active combat operations. However, reliable sources from the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) have debunked these rumors, stating that no missile interceptions have been conducted using the Iron Beam technology – yet.
The Iron Beam is a strategic companion to the Iron Dome. It’s intended to enhance Israel’s multilayered air and anti-missile defense system.
Itay Blumental, a military correspondent for Israeli public broadcasting KAN News, took to X (formerly Twitter) to clarify the situation.
He wrote, “From a check with security officials, no rocket interceptions were carried out using a laser beam despite the ‘Star Trek’ documents that are being distributed tonight in groups.”
