How Mossad and hidden drones carried out a surprise attack in Tehran
The Israeli air force-led operation against Iran was a joint attack coordinated several years earlier. Discover how the attack unfolded in this article.
Israel's attack on Iran a few hours ago was an operation that took years of planning, in which Israeli intelligence, the Israeli air force, Israeli defense industries, and Mossad agents were involved in surveillance and infiltration strategies.
The name "Am Kelavi," which means rising lion, was the covert name for this operation. For years, they compiled secret intelligence files and implemented strategies to eliminate Iran's nuclear and military assets.
Israel hit Iran with drones, missiles, and Mossad agents
An Israeli security official stated that the number of personnel involved in this attack was essential to make it not only a reality but also effective. Furthermore, these agents were specifically chosen for critical and complex missions.
The official stated that the attack had three levels. The first consisted of eliminating areas of Iran's ground- and air-based missile infrastructure. They then established a drone base in Iran, and at the time of the attack, Mossad agents recovered the drones from their hiding places. They were subsequently able to install additional missiles, which were hidden in rocks so they could not be easily seen. All of this work was coordinated with all the agents previously involved.
Israel targeted Iran’s Natanz Uranium site to weaken Defenses
The vice president of the Mind Israel think tank, Avner Golov, stated that the key to the attack's effectiveness was targeting the Natanz facility, Iran's main uranium base, and thereby successfully neutralizing Iran's first wave of defenses.
Furthermore, Eddie Defrin, Brigadier General and spokesperson for the Israel Defense Forces, commented that the operation also included attacks on several Iranian sites. He described Natanz, the main base attacked, as housing a variety of electrical infrastructure and centrifuge rooms.
