Tehran’s "Ghost Fleet" Obliterated: IDF Reveals Secret Strike on Iran’s Quds Force Transport Planes

Israel's Military Intelligence Directorate (AMAN) has released new details on Saturday's IAF strike that destroyed the Quds Force's air transport network inside Iran.

More than 16 transport aircraft were struck and destroyed, along with additional components located in the vicinity of Tehran's airport. The aircraft had been used by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps' Quds Force to arm and finance Iranian-backed terror proxies across the Middle East.

According to AMAN, Tehran's airport had been under close intelligence surveillance for years, with suspicious takeoffs and landings tracked and flagged through a broad collection and analysis effort spanning multiple intelligence units.

In an attempt to evade an Israeli strike, the Iranian regime had moved the aircraft to dedicated scrapyard compounds to complicate identification. AMAN says the aircraft were nonetheless located through a cross-referencing and decryption effort, and were subsequently targeted by the IAF.

The Quds Force transport network was responsible for transferring weapons and funds to Iran's regional terror proxies. The Quds Force operates to equip, train, and finance terror organizations with the aim of targeting Israeli and international civilians.

Israel and the US are now further down the target list. Iran’s military and terror infrastructure is being systematically wrecked.

I get a little uncomfortable with endless proclamations of enemy equipment destroyed. It reminds me of WW2 German newsreels regarding Russia. Having said that, I’m hopeful that we win this war decisively. It will, however, be disappointing if the Persians are STILL stuck with those filthy regime rats. This is a religious war if we like it or not and the Mullahs having to leave power would be a massive blow to their religion.

What bothers me the most is that China is overtly supporting Iran. That makes it a tinderbox ready to explode.

I wonder if we (the United States) can drop a deep penetrating bomb to destroy the Uranium.

Tehran’s “Ghost Fleet” Obliterated: IDF Reveals Secret Strike on Iran’s Quds Force Transport Planes. I’m interested to know what China thinks about all this stuff.

It was a preemptive move to move the aircraft to a scrapyard.

They’re trying to get their 200 million man army ready to march while they still have the fuel.

Agreed. CNN as well. Every single headline on their website regarding Iran is imbued with the hope that we fail.

It seems like China is on its back foot. They have their hands full helping Vlad (and not succeeding) in the Ukraine.

Maybe, a new conflict is sort of unlikely ... IMHO

Can you imagine if Trump states that if China does not back off we will implement a 500% tariff on all Chinese imports?

China with no oil and no jobs for its workers. They would have no choice but to start a war to avoid an internal revolution.
