IDF indicates Iran scaling back terror activity in light of coronavirus

The Israel Defense Forces indicates Iran is curbing its activities in the region as it grapples with a major outbreak of the coronavirus.

IDF Spokesperson Hidai Zilberman tells reporters that the military has noted a decrease in the amount of terrorist activity in the region by Israel’s enemies, without specifically naming Iran.

Zilberman says there is generally a decrease in the number of military operations across the Middle East in light of the disease.

Iran is among the countries hardest hit by the coronavirus, with hundreds of people killed, including most recently a senior cleric.
