Interactive Map: IDF’s operations in Gaza
On October 7, 2023, Israel was subjected to a large-scale surprise attack launched by Hamas and additional terrorist organizations from the Gaza Strip. During the assault, approximately 6,000 terrorists infiltrated Israeli communities near the border and IDF bases in the area, while 4,300 rockets were simultaneously launched into Israel’s civilian hinterland. The attack resulted in the murder of 1,163 Israelis and the abduction of 251 others.
Since then, The IDF has dismantled Hamas’ military capabilities—striking over 44,000 targets, eliminating approximately 17,000 terrorists (including the Hamas leadership), destroying around 90% of its rocket arsenal, and demolishing about 40% of its tunnel network. Most of the hostages have returned home, mainly through exchange agreements, but the mission remains incomplete. Alongside significant military and strategic achievements, the “Swords of Iron” war has exacted a heavy toll: over 1,860 Israelis killed (including those killed in the initial assault) and more than 24,000 injured.

Interactive Map: The Syrian Arena
On December 8, following the collapse of Bashar al-Assad’s regime, Israel launched Operation Arrow of Bashan in Syria. During the operation, the IDF operated in the buffer zone and took control of the peak of Mount Hermon on the Syrian side. At the same time, at least 136 Israeli airstrikes were carried out across the country, 65% of them targeting the western regions, including Damascus, Daraa, and Latakia. According to the IDF spokesperson, these strikes resulted in the destruction of 70%–80% of the Assad regime’s military capabilities within just 48 hours.
This map displays the Israeli strikes in Syria during Operation Arrow of Bashan. Additionally, it illustrates the areas of control within the country and the various actors operating there, including Kurdish, American, and Turkish forces.

Interactive Map: The Houthi Front
On October 19, 2023, just days after the outbreak of the Swords of Iron war, the Houthis in Yemen declared an additional front against Israel as part of their commitment to the Iranian-led “Axis of Resistance” and the concept of “unification of the arenas.” The Houthi militia, which is supported by Iran and controls large parts of Yemen, directly launched missiles and UAVs against Israel and imposed a naval blockade in the Red Sea, disrupting global trade. According to the IDF spokesperson, since October 2023, the Houthis have launched approximately 220 missiles and around 170 UAVs toward Israel.
This map displays both Houthi attacks on Israel and IDF strikes in Yemen, located approximately 1,700 km from Israel’s borders. Additionally, the map illustrates the threat ranges of Houthi weaponry, including attack UAVs and ballistic missiles.
