If they are drones the explosions on video seem rather low yield

No, it is the Iranians playing with fire, until Israel slaps back.

Well, heck, who knew the Irans were having the same problem we have what with their chicken farms catching on fire, and all. Oh, wait. Was that a baby milk factory? We had the same problem with baby formula? Seems like everybody’s krap is just falling apart?

Four places on the same day? That even breaks Paul Harvey’s “Rule of Threes.” Could be Parveez just isn’t doing his PM’s?

Sure would be a shame if Iran couldn’t export drones for a while.

Israel softening them up for the BIG one when they take out her nuclear facilities?

When they do, Iran will not know what hit them. Israel does not do anything half-assed.

And if they told the U.S. it would leak like a cheesecloth condom.

“Mossad?”

That would be my first guess. But it could also be Ukrainians, because Iran has been supplying Russia with a bunch of stuff, especially drones.

I suspect that Israel has quite a secret drone program including stealth glider drones with decent payload.

I would bet that the US probably has drones capable of traversing the globe without detection. They are probably two or more generations ahead of the ones we get to see or hear about.

The nation that nobody really talks about that likely has some very advanced stuff is Japan. They remain an electronics and design juggernaut and they increasingly view conflict with China/Rocketman as likely. 3rd largest economy in the world and they are still a high-end manufacturing powerhouse.
