Israeli sabotage attempt foiled
Iran says it has thwarted a major Israeli sabotage plot against the country’s defense industries. The intelligence department of the Iranian defense ministry says it foiled the sabotage attack through a sophisticated operation. It also says the conspiracy was the biggest against Iran’s missile, air, and space industries. The sabotage attempt was engineered by Mossad, the spying agency of the Israeli regime. A professional team was trying to bring faulty parts into Iran’s missile production cycle, which could turn into an explosive device and could have dealt a blow to Iran’s defense capabilities.
Anti-Israeli operations
Israeli forces have killed a Palestinian driver after he ran over a group of regime's soldiers in the occupied West Bank city of Ramallah. One of the soldiers was killed and several others wounded in Thursday’s incident. Earlier on Wednesday, at least four Israeli soldiers were injured in Nablus after Palestinians detonated explosives in response to the storming of the city’s eastern areas. Israeli settlers, backed by soldiers, stormed the eastern parts of Nablus to protect groups of other settlers visiting a historical monument there. Nearly 60 Palestinians were also injured after Israeli soldiers opened fire on them. Hamas hailed Palestinian resistance, calling it a resounding message to Israeli settlers. The resistance movement warned that there is no safe place for the Israeli extremists on any part of Palestinian land.
