What are cluster munitions that Iran used against Israel? What makes them so dangerous?
On Thursday, Iran launched a ballistic missile at Israel carrying a warhead that dispersed roughly 20 cluster submunitions over an eight-kilometre radius in central Israel. The warhead split mid-air at an altitude of seven kilometres. While one bomblet struck a home in Azor, many failed to explode. Israel and Iran are not signatories to the 2008 ban on such weapons
