US fighter jets, destroyers, and Patriot missiles shot down loads of Iranian weapons to shield Israel from an unprecedented attack

The US used fighter jets, Patriot missiles, and guided-missile destroyers to help thwart the attack.

Israel said that it, with support from its partners, intercepted 99% of missiles and drones.
