Israel claims that it destroyed an Iranian drone manufacturing plant over the weekend.
According to a report by the Yedioth Aharonot newspaper on Monday, October 24, Israeli military bombed the facility in Syrian territory on Saturday.
The facility had been reported by the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (an organisation based in Great Britain) who said that it was used to assemble unmanned craft using components manufactures in Iran. These it said were then shipped secretly to Dimas, in southern Syria.
Israeli sources told the newspaper that the attack was launched from the Sea of Galilee, however, most of the missiles were shot down by Iranian defence systems. It is though that the Israelis disabled the region’s radar to execute the attack.
