The IDF confirms carrying out strikes on Iran’s nuclear sites, claiming Revolutionary Guard chief Hossein Salami and other commanders were killed in the attack.
Iran reports six scientists among the dead, with state TV alleging civilian casualties—including children—though these claims remain unverified by independent sources.
Israel says Iran has launched 100 drones toward its territory in retaliation for the attack and the killing of military leaders.
In an operation that redefined modern warfare, Israel’s Mossad intelligence agency successfully infiltrated Iran’s most secure military and nuclear facilities years before launching last night’s devastating strikes.
According to senior security officials speaking exclusively to The Times of Israel, the attack—which crippled Iran’s air defenses and missile infrastructure—was made possible by a secret drone base and elite commando teams operating undetected on Iranian soil. The mission, years in the making, involved smuggling precision weapons into the country and positioning operatives near critical military sites.
The operation relied on meticulous, long-term planning between Mossad and the Israel Defence Forces (IDF). Precision weapons systems, including explosive-laden drones and guided missiles, were covertly transported into Iran and hidden near key military installations.
A secret drone base was established inside the country, allowing Israel to launch strikes without detection. Meanwhile, undercover commandos embedded themselves near anti-aircraft sites and missile launchers, ready to activate at a moment’s notice.
The Three-Pronged Attack
The strikes unfolded in three synchronised phases, each designed to dismantle Iran’s defences systematically.
First, Mossad operatives deployed precision-guided missiles to neutralise surface-to-air defence systems, blinding Iran’s radar networks.
Second, pre-positioned drones swarmed a major missile base outside Tehran, destroying launchers that had been poised to strike Israeli targets.
Finally, modified vehicles equipped with electronic warfare tools disrupted remaining air defences, ensuring Israeli jets had complete air supremacy.
This operation’s reliance on subterfuge rather than brute force made it unprecedented. “This wasn’t just an airstrike—it was a surgical occupation,” a security official revealed. Mossad agents, disguised as locals, moved weapons and equipment undetected, while AI-powered drones evaded Iranian surveillance for months.
The success of the mission highlights Israel’s ability to wage war deep inside enemy territory without traditional military engagement.
Iran’s Intelligence Failure
Perhaps the most startling aspect of the operation was Iran’s apparent lack of awareness. Despite heightened security, Israeli operatives smuggled weapons, established a drone base, and positioned commandos near critical sites without detection.
The strikes have exposed vulnerabilities in Iran’s counterintelligence capabilities, raising questions about how deeply Mossad has penetrated its security apparatus.
The attack marks a shift in modern conflict, where wars may increasingly be won through covert infiltration rather than overt military campaigns.
If Israel can execute such an operation inside a heavily guarded adversary like Iran, other nations may reassess their own defence strategies. Meanwhile, Tehran faces a dilemma—how to retaliate against an enemy that has already embedded itself within its borders.
