#1 The drone used in the attack on the commercial diesel tanker MV Pacific Zircon late last year was traced back to Iran, US military officials said at the time, as were the drones used in similar attacks on the Mercer Street and Helios Ray in 2021. All three of the ships were either owned by or linked to Israeli businessmen.
Following last month’s drone incident in Isfahan, suspected Israeli airstrikes hit Iran-linked convoys crossing into Syria from Iraq along a route which Western officials say the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) uses to smuggle sophisticated projectile weapons and radar systems towards Israel’s borders. https://www.al-monitor.com
