Israel (and any serious geopolitical observer) is not concerned with the non-existent military threat these 2 Iranian vessels pose. I believe what has got Israel bent out of shape is that one of those Iranian naval vessels is the Khrag, its largest supply vessel.

Want to make any wagers on what is in the Khrag’s cargo holds. I bet a bunch of goodies for Hezbollah. This smells like a massive resupply for Hezbollah and because it’s an Iranian Navy vessel and not an Iranian flagged commercial vessel, boarding the vessel for inspection is, well, tricky.

Interesting thoughts. I was unaware that one was a cargo ship.

Thanks.

It's certain they'll pass through the canal unopposed. Once they reach the Med I would not be surprised if one, or both, are sunk in the night by an unknown explosion.
