Israel's Covert War Against Hizbullah's Missiles
(Ynet News) Ron Ben-Yishai - By providing missiles and rockets to Hizbullah for more than a decade, Iran's goal is to be able to threaten vital Israeli infrastructures - water, electricity, hospitals, transport, airfields and emergency supplies. Iran is now transitioning Hizbullah's arsenal to one comprised mostly of precise missiles, some of which are GPS-guided. The Iranians understand that Israel's anti-missile defenses are capable of intercepting more than 80% of their rockets, so they intend to battle it using sheer volume. The attacks on arms depots in Syria attributed to Israel reflect the increased efforts by the Iranians to arm Hizbullah as well as Israel's efforts to prevent this.
