A senior Israeli military official admitted to The New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman that Israel targeted the Iranian's drone T4 home base in Syria last week. “It was the first time we attacked live Iranian targets — both facilities and people,” said the Israeli military source.
To really understand Israel and the Middle East - subscribe to HaaretzThe official noted that the armed Iranian drone that entered Israeli airspace "opened a new period," saying that “this is the first time we saw Iran do something against Israel — not by proxy."
During the attack, Israel killed seven Iranian Revolutionary Guards' Quds force members, including Colonel Mehdi Dehghan, who led the drone unit operating out of Syria's T4 air base, east of Homs in central Syria. Two months ago, an Israeli F-15 war plane that carried out airstrikes on a Syrian air base was shot down after it struck targets in Syria in response to an Iranian drone that infiltrated Israeli airforce. 
The downed Iranian drone was armed with explosives and on its way to carry out an attack, the Israeli military said.
According to IDF spokesman, Brig. Gen. Ronen Manelis, the drone’s flight path and Israel’s “intelligence and operational analysis of the parts of the Iranian unmanned vehicle” indicated that “the aircraft was carrying explosives” and that its mission was “an act of sabotage in Israeli territory.”

Tra loro ci sono giovani con bambini nel marsupio, altri con bambini in età scolare, e ci sono persone con i capelli grigi come me. Un insegnante, un imprenditore tecnologico, uno psicologo, un toelettatore, un allenatore di basket. Alcuni dicono che stanno solo esplorando, ma si vergognano ancora di ammettere che stanno seriamente considerando l'opzione. Altri s...
