I thought they had Iron Dome or some such to intercept incoming missles?

I’m not sure Iron Dome can do much about the really small rockets though

As I understand it, Iron Dome doesn't launch if the incoming target trajectories show them missing populated areas.

They do, but it doesn't shoot at missiles whose ballistic courses are determined to impact at uninhabited areas. That's the idea anyway. As a practical matter sometimes those hurt someone anyway and, more often, Iron Dome antimissiles miss their targets.

Iron Dome overall works as intended. It's just not perfect.
