It was the slowest airborne attack since World War I. That may have been intentional.
Iran has launched a mass drone attack on Israel, with some of the slowest flying offensive aerial vehicles deployed since the Zeppelin raids of World War I. The result has been the loss of the majority of the drones, with very little damage inflicted on targets. But the attack served a useful political purpose for Tehran, and it suggests that massed attacks of low cost drones against sophisticated defence systems can be stopped, but ironically, may also be useful politically for the attacking nation, even if the attacks fail.
