According to “Al Arabiya”, Iran launched dozens of combat drones in the direction of Israel from the territory of the province of Kermanshah and several other provinces located in the western part of the country.
Israeli army spokesman Daniel Hagari told the Times of Israel that drones launched by Iran could reach Israeli territory within hours. At the same time, Iran, in addition to drones, could launch missiles at Israel, Politico reported, citing Israeli and American officials.
This information was confirmed by the Telegram channel of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC). The elite group also reported that Iranian hackers had launched an attack on Israel’s missile defense systems.
