A single Telegram channel (Intel Sky) reported that around 10 Israeli Air Force fighter jets took off from Nevatim Airbase and flew through Syrian airspace into Iraqi airspace, where they conducted simulated attack runs. The channel said similar flights have occurred over several days.
Why it matters
The report, which is unverified and comes from one source, describes repeated Israeli air activity in the region at a time the channel says Iran remains on high alert amid expectations of a possible Israeli-U.S. attack.
What's unclear
- No official Israeli, Syrian, Iraqi or U.S. confirmation of the flight or the simulated attack runs
- The exact date and timing of the reported sorties is not independently established
- Whether the stated purpose of confusing Iranian forces reflects any official account or only the channel's assessment
