Israel’s Commando Raid On Iran’s Underground Missile Factory In Syria

[Rimmer]

 

The Israeli Ministry of Defense has released details — and imagery — of a dramatic commando raid into Syria, which targeted an underground missile production facility, back in September. The raid, codenamed Operation Many Ways, was deemed an outstanding success, with the facility destroyed and none of the 120 Israeli special forces troops involved being injured. Until now, however, very few details of how the raid took place had emerged.

The raid was carried out on Sept. 8 by members of the Israeli Air Force (IAF), specifically its elite Shaldag unit and Unit 669. Shaldag is a clandestine outfit that specializes in long-range penetration operations, including commando-style raids. Unit 669 is tasked primarily with combat search and rescue (CSAR), a key requirement of missions carried out in or close to hostile territory.

What the Israeli Ministry of Defense described as “precision-guided missiles” and long-range rockets were planned to be made at the facility and then supplied to Hezbollah in Lebanon, as well as to the Assad regime in Syria. In terms of Iranian support for Hezbollah, Deep Layer was Iran’s “flagship project,” according to the IDF.

I don't understand why they announced how the raid was executed. Much better to keep all this close to your chest.

Another amazing and well executed operation.

 

DECLASSIFIED: In September 2024, before the fall of the Assad Regime, our soldiers conducted an undercover operation to dismantle an Iranian-funded underground precision missile production site in Syria. 

Watch exclusive footage from this historic moment.

 Transparency and  necessary. There are  millions of people out protesting claiming that Hezbollah  and Iran are innocent victims, that Assad was a humanitarian etc. The documentation of the facilities provides a legal justification for Israel's intervention in Syria. Some foreign governments like Ireland, Spain and others are quick to condemn Israel. The presentation of factual evidence counters the false information disseminated by others.

Of course you do. But the fact is they have shown the world the evidence of an Iranian underground precision missile production site in Syria.

This is a historical opportunity to crush the Iran - Russia nexus and who to be the key player in that? America's best ally ISRAEL of course. Syria has fallen? Why? Because imperialist genocidal war criminal dictator Putin is too busy watching his own nation fall apart because of his war of choice against Ukraine. Russia can't help Iran either now. Strike while the iron is hot. It really might be now or never, so why not now?
