Israel’s Covert Operation in Iran – How It Unfolded with Likely Internal Assistance That Made It Possible

Israel’s Mossad executed the operation within Iran, using a covertly established base for suicide drones alongside a special forces team. This operation was primarily aimed at neutralizing Iran’s surface-to-surface missile launchers.

According to a source, the suicide drones used in the operation were smuggled into Iran ahead of time and stored at a secret Mossad facility. These drones, believed to be of Israeli design, were activated in alignment with airstrikes to ensure precise targeting of military installations near Tehran. The main focus of the strikes was missile launchers that Israelis identified as posing an immediate risk to national security.

Simultaneously, Mossad deployed commando units within Iran, operating in the central regions of the country. The source indicated that these special forces used advanced precision weaponry positioned in open areas adjacent to Iranian anti-aircraft systems. These systems were activated at the onset of the airstrikes, enabling the temporary neutralization of Iran’s air defenses.

Iranian authorities acknowledged the attack, stating it targeted military assets in the provinces of Tehran, Khuzestan, and Ilam. The Islamic Republic News Agency (IRNA) reported that several military facilities sustained damage, though the specific extent of the destruction and casualties was not detailed. Iranian officials condemned the operation as an “act of aggression” and vowed to retaliate.

Iran’s Foreign Ministry has already indicated plans to bring the issue to international forums, including the United Nations.
