Scott Ritter provides the most detailed assessment that can be made at this point following the missile strikes, if you look past his hyperbolic statements.
Inflicting casualties wasn't the point. Iranians gave notice, and attacked night time, when the target locations are clear of personnel, and Israel had 8 hours to prepare with safety measures. If Iran wanted, they could switch their aims and kill many thousands indiscriminately, like Israel does every day. But unlike them, Iran is not a murderous warmongering regime.
Iron Dome is for taking out rickety rockets from Hamas. There's no defense against real missile weapons.
Iran has shown that last time wasn't no fluke. If Israel were to launch air strikes against Iran, their aircraft would have no bases to return to, as Iran has the capacity to take them all out. Not to mention their Russian S400 air defense systems.
