Under the guise of a 'condom flotilla' and Greta: Iran's dramatic plan against Israel revealed

The article reveals that Hamas and Iran organized an international flotilla of dozens of ships from 19 countries, intended to block shipping routes to Israel in the Mediterranean. The flotilla split in two during an operation off the coast of Crete, and the IDF understands this was a tactical ambush. The Navy views blocking the maritime space as an Iranian option, noting that such an attempt would be considered a strategic blow that could trigger a significant response.

The article reveals an Iranian-Hamas plan to block shipping routes to Israel in the Mediterranean using an international flotilla. The flotilla, organized by Hamas official abroad Zaher al-Birawi, departed in two waves and included dozens of ships from 19 countries. During an operation off the coast of Crete, the flotilla split in two; initially, it was thought the split was meant to hinder Navy fighters, but the IDF realized it was a tactical ambush designed to block the shipping route of merchant ships eastward to Israel. The Navy views the scenario of blocking the maritime space as an Iranian option, noting that at the start of the 'Arrows of the North' war, the Navy and Air Force struck over 80% of Hezbollah's surface-to-sea missiles, including C-704, C-802, Ghadir, and Yakhont missiles. Last week, the Navy held a large exercise simulating a naval blockade in the Mediterranean. The IDF says such an attempt would be considered a strategic blow to Israel, potentially leading to a very significant response.
