File under: Hezbollah

#1 Much more interesting then this early article lets on. Head over to twitter and enjoy the by play.

IDF: Soleimani commanded an attack of killer drones on Israel. Iranian Quds operatives flew to the Damascus Intl. Airport with drones & explosives, and continued to an Iranian base in Syria to prepare for an attack on Israel.

An attack that never happened.

We attacked their base:

Hez: Before you get too cocky, remember the old line from the IRA: "We only have to get lucky once; you have to be lucky all the time".

Observer:
1. According to #lebanese reports and pictures, #Hezbollah downed to #Israeli drone over the #Dahyeh Neigborhood #Beirut . One looks like the DJI Matrice 600 Pro (Hex) and the other one like the DJI Matrice 100 (Quad). Both are in used in the #IDF. The interesting thing is...

2. not the use of the drones which are widely used for multiple purposes such as Riot Control etc. The shortest distance between the Israeli border and #Beirut is 60kms approx. Those drones can fly at a 40mph max speed, with hovering time varying from 20 mins to 40 mins depending

3. on the payload weight, battery longevity and foremost the communication link which needs an unobstructed LOS of 5 kms max. Having said that and after a bit of Math and logics, the drones were already at close proximity of #Hezbollah HQ's in #Beirut

4. Those Drones downed in #Beirut if confirmed they were #IDF's would have been just a message to #Nasrallah #Hezbollah : "Hey, we are right here at your doorstep, we can smuggle stuff under your nose too". Good old PSYOPS combined with real capabilities on ground/air.

The actual commercial drones the IDF used: HERE
