Mossad smuggled weapons into Iran ahead of strikes
Israeli security officials say the country’s Mossad spy agency smuggled weapons into Iran ahead of the strikes that were used to target its defences from within.
The two security officials spoke on condition of anonymity. The news wire could not independently confirm their claims and there was no official comment.
The officials said a base for launching explosive drones was established inside Iran and that the drones were activated during the attack to target missile launchers at an Iranian base near Tehran.
They said Israel had also smuggled precision weapons into central Iran and positioned them near surface-to-air missile systems. They said it also deployed strike systems on vehicles. Both were activated as the strikes began, in order to target Iran’s defences, the officials said.
The Mossad on Friday released stunning and rare video footage of its co-lead role with the air force in Israel’s preemptive strike on Iran’s ballistic missiles and air defenses.
Three videos show the Mossad targeting ballistic missile targets, air defense targets, and general preparations for the attacks (with the agents’ faces covered up.)
