the mystery behind the drones’ starting base –

In the enigmatic silence of Israel, in Tehran the Ayatollah, the armed forces and the Revolutionary Guards are wondering regarding the origin of the drones that launched missiles from close range at dawn once morest the Isfahan air base. The Israeli strategy of not claiming responsibility for the attack this time not only shocks, but also agitates the Iranian military and the Islamic regime who have not yet managed to identify where the drones in the blitz came from and fear that they may have been launched by the same territory of Iran. Excluding the possibility that they may have crossed the skies of Jordan and Iraq from Israel, hypotheses have been made of departure bases from Azerbaijan or from a boat in the Red Sea. Conjectures without evidence and, a detail that further alarms the Iranians, without radar traces as if they were stealth drones, that is, invisible. The raid was both destructive and demonstrative, claims the American newspaper Washington Post.

“It was a carefully calibrated attack with the aim of demonstrating to Tehran the Jewish State’s ability to strike military sites on the territory of the Islamic Republic,” an Israeli official whose name was not disclosed told the US newspaper. identity. The «Washington Post» underlines that Iran’s main nuclear research complex is located in the province of Isfahan, already bombed in January last year by the Israelis, who even then did not claim responsibility for the attack.

The Iranian leaders would have understood the demonstrative significance of the raid once morest the Isfahan base. This is demonstrated by the statement by Ahmad Haghtalab, commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps unit that protects nuclear sites, who without anyone having asked him, declared: «Iran will respond in the same way to any Israeli military attack to our nuclear plants.” Let’s not hurt ourselves in the series. Even if Western analysts believe that the ayatollahs do not yet have a nuclear device, it is likely that they are still capable of using a “dirty bomb”. Or, a nightmarish hypothesis which is nevertheless considered impractical, they might have obtained a tactical device from Putin, president of Russia, who buys drones from Tehran to attack Ukraine.
