Israel targets Hezbollah’s intelligence headquarters in Syria




Israel on Monday targeted Hezbollah’s intelligence headquarters in Syria.

“The IDF conducted an air campaign and struck terrorist targets belonging to Hezbollah’s intelligence headquarters in Syria,” the IDF said in a post shared on Twitter. ,

“In recent weeks, the IDF has significantly weakened Hezbollah’s intelligence headquarters, destroyed military intelligence assets in Lebanon and damaged the organization’s intelligence gathering capabilities. “Targeting Hezbollah military intelligence assets in Syria further contributes to IDF operations in Lebanon, thereby weakening the Hezbollah terrorist organization’s intelligence capabilities,” the post said.

Earlier, Israeli forces entered Syria to arrest a terrorist operative working with Iranian agents, the IDF revealed on Sunday evening.

Soldiers from the elite Agoz commando unit arrested Ali Suleiman al-Adi, a Syrian national living in the southern city of Saida. According to the IDF, al-Addi collected intelligence on Israeli forces along the border for future terrorist activity. The IDF said al-Adwas is under surveillance and is now in Israel for questioning.

“The IDF will continue to work to secure the borders and will not allow the establishment of an Iranian axis and hostile subversive activity directed from southern Syria,” the military said.

The IDF also released footage of al-Addi telling interrogators how he/she was recruited by Iran.

“We were sitting together on the fence. [he/she] In this way he/she looked around and said, ‘Your area is good from strategic point of view. We can benefit from this,” Al-Adi said.

The Iranian agent disguised himself as a Syrian military intelligence officer who was interested in the activities of the Israeli border patrol.

“he/she said he/she was from military intelligence, but in reality, Iran was behind him/her. As far as I understand he/she is from Iran,” al-Adi said.

In recent days, Iranian officials have stepped up their rhetoric about the attack after the Israeli Air Force attacked military targets and air defense systems on October 26.
