“Iran says it has developed Arash-2 drone designed to hit Israel’s Tel Aviv, Haifa,” by Yaghoub Fazeli, Al Arabiya English, September 12, 2022 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
Iran has designed a drone, named Arash-2, specifically for targeting the Israeli cities of Tel Aviv and Haifa, a senior Iranian military commander said on Sunday.
“We have specially designed this drone for Haifa and Tel Aviv. This is a unique drone that was developed for this task,” state media quoted Kiyoumars Heydari, commander of the Iranian army’s ground forces, as saying.
Iran “will unveil this drone’s capabilities in future exercises,” he said.
Iran does not recognise Israel and Iranian military commanders have repeatedly threatened to attack the cities of Tel Aviv and Haifa….
Infidel says
Is it anything like the drones they sold to Russia, which Moscow refused to pay for b’cos they didn’t work as they should have?
gravenimage says
Yep–most of them malfunctioned. I don’t think Russia should count on getting their money back either….
Infidel says
I don’t think that Russia paid them: what I read was that Moscow refused to pay for the drones b’cos of them malfunctioning
Dave says
Official statements from Iran are emptier than a hole full of nothing.

Israel has *never* threatened Iran–but Iran constantly threatens to wipe Israel off the map. Ans of course Haifa and Tel Aviv are purely civilian targets.
Note the name of the drone–“Arash”–means “hero” in Farsi. Because what is more heroic than the unprovoked targeting of civilian populations?

Yes–just shameful.

Yes but if Iran ever seriously attacks Israel it is Iran who will be wiped off the map. Iran might take out one Israeli city, but about 10 minutes later nukes from Israeli nuclear submarines would turn every Iranian city into a crater.
Walter Sieruk says
The government officials and the military commanders of the State of Israel do have every practical ethical and even a strong duty to do everything they are able to do to protect Israel and her citizens from the vicious murderous and destructive scheming by those hostile Muslim tyrants in that agressive Islamic regime of Iran.
This may even included launching a preemptive strike ,in self -defence against those Islamic dictators of that antagonistic and belligerent “mullah regime” of Iran.
As the former US President of the United States so ,wisely , in a speech declared “The right to self- defense never ceases, It is among the most sacred , and alike necessary to nations and individuals.”
Walter Sieruk says
I forgot to keyboard the former the name of that US President. It’s James Monroe..

Walter,
I remember Operation Scorch Sword / Operation Opera, that was carried out by the Israeli Air Force in 1980 and 1981 against an Iranian nuclear reactor.
Israel is, no doubt, gaming out another surprise attack.
Infidel says
Iraqi – the one in Osirak
James Lincoln says
Infidel,
My mistake – guess I was half-asleep when I wrote that comment!
Operation Opera was a surprise airstrike conducted by the Israeli Air Force on 7 June 1981, which destroyed an unfinished IRAQI nuclear reactor.
And this was after IRAN’s 1980 partially successful Operation Scorch Sword.
