Did the iron dome run out of US interceptor rockets?

A lot of misinformation in this thread (as usual for this subreddit). The iron dome does not intercept ballistic missiles. Israel has Arrow, David's Sling, and Patriot missile systems for ballistic missile interceptions. In general, ballistic missiles are much harder to intercept.
