Israeli defense minister: Iran training affiliated militias on drone attacks
Fox News
Israeli Defense Minister Benny Gantz accused Iran of providing drones (UAVs) to foreign militias in the Middle East.
"The Kashan base is used to train terrorists from Yemen, Iraq, Syria and Lebanon," Gantz said at the annual International Institute for Counter-Terrorism Conference at Reichman University. "These terrorists are trained to employ UAVs produced by Iran. This base is a key point from which Iranian aerial terrorism is exported to the region." His office provided what it said is a satellite image showing UAVs on the runways at Kashan. "One of the most significant tools that Iran has developed is its unmanned aerial vehicle system," Gantz said. "It's an accurate, deadly system that can cross thousands of kilometers. The Iranians produce and export them to their proxies." Gantz said Iran had attempted to transfer the know-how needed for UAV production to Gaza.More Related News
