On October 1, Iran launched a major missile attack on Israel, firing nearly 200 ballistic missiles in response to Israel's recent assassinations of top leaders from Hezbollah and Hamas, including Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah.

The attack triggered air raid sirens across Israel, with air defenses intercepting many of the missiles.

This escalation follows Israel’s military operations in Lebanon and Syria, which have intensified regional tensions. Israeli officials have promised retaliation, further raising concerns about a potential wider conflict in the Middle East.

The news became one of the most discussed topics on a popular Korean community forum. Korean netizens are voicing their concern for the individuals and families impacted by the recent missile attack.

Korean netizens commented:

"I'm more worried that Israel will use this as an excuse to escalate the situation even further."

"This is scary."

"Even watching the videos is terrifying..."

"It feels like Israel was waiting for an attack on their homeland to justify a full-on war. Now they’ll push for a Middle Eastern war—they have the military strength and strong backing to do it."

"This is the start of an all-out war. Israel has been trying to provoke this for a while."

"Please stop, or we’re all going to die..."

"Stop the war, you lunatics..."

"Stop it, lunatics—when people say that, they should attach a subject properly. Say, 'Israel and the U.S., stop.' They've been massacring others."

"But honestly, the U.S. really turns a blind eye to Israel... What is this..."

"Is this is the start of World War 3?"

"Humans are so evil."

"No war."

"Please stop them."

"This is so crazy and it's so scary."
