INS LEVIATHAN, Mediterranean Sea (Reuters) - When fighting erupted in Gaza last month and rockets rained on Israel, the men operating its navy submarine Leviathan knew next to nothing.
Deep beneath the Mediterranean sea, they were relayed only brief bulletins so as not to be distracted from their mission.
"We are by definition clandestine and, to a degree, isolated at sea. Our performance depends on our focus," a senior navy officer told Reuters aboard Leviathan during a training run, in the first such foreign media access to the vessels.
Speculation surrounds the role of the fleet of five Dolphin-class submarines, each costing some $500 million.
A sixth is on order from the German manufacturer. Some analysts suggest these boats may be capable of launching nuclear missiles.

WNU Editor: My gut is telling me that these subs are being used to target Iranian assets in covert operations.

Biden DOJ Refuses to Release Jan. 6 Security Camera Footage — They Know It Contradicts All of the Lies About Alleged “Insurrection” and They Must Keep that from American Public
Govt as run by the Dems are trying to control the narrative not expose the truth.
They have Shaman guy saying everyone be peaceful. He did not mean to harm a fly and they have him locked up. He is stupid and trespassing while stupid is a crime. How much of a crime might say more about the accuser than the accused.
Having a beer with Shaman guy would be way more fun than having one with say Joe Biden.
Israel submarines are mainly, but not only, for retaliation as the American are too.
off-topic? no off y0ur fucking mind
450 indicted...how many tapes have you seen, are available net is flooded with proof of what took place and so: you are full of crap
8:16 The FEDs are out of their mind. So are you. 6 guys go to DC. One enters the capital building. They charge 6. Miscarriage of justice much?
IF they do not have anything to hide why not release the tapes?
We knw why. Some of the cops invited the protesters in.
If they were invited in then they had no intent to trespass and therefor no case.
And there you go again. Saying many hours available, You used the word many, instead of a number or a percentage. You are such a great analyst. The type that uses their fingers and toes to be able to count beyond 10.
Cat got 8:16's tongue.
