ELI5: Israel's Iron Dome.
gpt
There are 2 yards back to back with a fence. One yard is Gaza and the other is Israel.

The Gaza side throw basket balls over the fence and they break things in the Israel side. The Gaza side can't over the fence so they don't know where to throw the balls. This causes them to randomly throw balls onto the Israel side.

The Israel side doesn't like it because the balls break their stuff. So the have a team of people working to take the balls out of the sky(the iron dome system). This team has a two people in it. One spotter who watches very carefully for and in coming balls and where they are going to land. If they see any balls that will hit something important he quickly tell the other half of the team, the pitcher, where it is coming from. This pitcher is very very very good at throwing a base ball. He hits as many of the basket balls as he can which knocks the balls in a different direction and away from anything important.
