Information collected by US intelligence, starting last weekend, as reported by the The Wall Street Journal. This is a sign that may indicate that Tehran is preparing for an attack in the coming days after the accusations against Israel for the killing, last Wednesday in Tehran, of the political leader of the country Hamas, Ismail Haniyeh.
Attack soon?
Officials in Washington and Jerusalem claim that Iran and related groups, including theHezbollah Lebanon and the Houthi Yemenis, attack Israel at any time. The US 007 report says US officials do not know the extent of Hezbollah’s involvement in a possible Iranian response to the killing of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran, which came hours after the killing of the military commander of a Lebanese terrorist group, Fuad Shukrin the Israeli attack on Beirut.
However, it is difficult to qualify a swarm of drones against Israel that targeted military targets. A Hezbollah source told the Reuters which would be the case in any case revenge of the group for Israel to kill the leader of Hezbollah Fuad Shukr in Beirut last week. According to Tel Aviv, however, the attack from Lebanon is to be considered as such.
