Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleThe Israeli military’s Arabic-language spokesman says that at 7 p.m. the army will release video footage of the Iran-backed teams attempting to launch attack drones at northern Israel from Syria on Thursday night.
“Tonight we will broadcast the video that [Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps commander] Qassem Soleimani is trying to hide,” Lt. Col. Avichay Adraee writes on Twitter.
According to the IDF, Soleimani personally led the plot to attack northern Israeli targets with kamikaze drones.
“[IRGC] Quds Force operatives and Shiite militias tried to launch an armed drone at Israeli targets from the [Syrian] village of Erneh. We tracked them, saw them, confused them and thwarted their plans,” Adraee says.
