Questions are being raised that how did Hezbollah terrorists carry out drone attacks on Israeli territory when Iron Dome was deployed? Has Hezbollah figured out how to dodge and monitor Iron Dome?
Israel is currently fighting a war on many fronts simultaneously. In such a situation, to avoid missile and drone attacks, Israel has deployed the biggest security system on its borders i.e. Iron Dome Defense System, which is providing security to Israel by intercepting every missile and drone coming from the enemy country. . Recently, when Iran attacked Israel with about 200 ballistic missiles, most of them were destroyed in the air by Israel's Iron Dome, but now Hezbollah has neutralized it.
In fact, Lebanon's Hezbollah terrorists breached its security system on Sunday and fired several drones at Israeli army positions, killing four soldiers and injuring more than 60. Hezbollah terrorists attacked the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) base near Binyamina-Givat Ada on Sunday evening using a Mirsad-1 drone, killing four soldiers and injuring several others. These drones passed through the sea area and fell on the targeted targets in the central Israeli area. The IDF said it was investigating the incident. The IDF also said it had shot down a Hezbollah drone.
In such a situation, questions are being raised that how did Hezbollah terrorists carry out drone attacks on Israeli territory while Iron Dome was being deployed? Has Hezbollah figured out how to dodge and monitor Iron Dome? This attack has also proved that Israel should not underestimate the strength of Hezbollah. Hezbollah has been receiving all kinds of help from Iran. Media reports say that Iron Dome had chased these drones but suddenly they disappeared from their radar. The surprising thing about this attack is that the radars deployed in the Israeli security system neither warned of danger nor sounded sirens during the Mirsad-1 attack. This drone attack by Hezbollah has given Israel sleepless nights.
What is Mirsad-1 drone, what is its specialty?
The Mirsad-1 drone is a suicide drone that has been used by Hezbollah fighters for 20 years. In Iran it is known as Ababil-Tea. According to Israeli research institute Alma Center, Mirsad-1 drone has a range of 120 kilometers and a maximum speed of 370 kilometers per hour. This drone can carry a payload (explosives) of up to 40 kg and can fly up to 3,000 meters high. Till 2002, Hezbollah used this drone for surveillance and espionage, but after that it started using it for suicide attacks in Israeli territory.
A report in the Jerusalem Post said the Mirsad-1, a drone that has been deployed by Hezbollah for more than two decades, is based on an Iranian design. Let us tell you that Hezbollah is an armed Shia terrorist group which is supported by Iran. To trick the Israeli security system, Hezbollah first attacked with rockets, then also carried out drone attacks in order to confuse the Israeli soldiers and its air defense system. Hezbollah was partially successful in its goal because some of its drones fell near the military base, deceiving the air defense system. However, this is not the first time that Hezbollah's drones have dodged and entered Israeli airspace. This is the second incident this year when Israel's air defense system could not stop a drone attack.
