News Topical, Digital Desk : First during the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, and now in the fight between Israel and Iran, the effective role of drones is clearly visible. Small in size, beyond the radar and capable of carrying out powerful attacks - these attack drones have become an extremely effective weapon in modern warfare.
When they are launched from deep inside enemy territory, as happened this month in Iran and Russia, their impact is even more devastating. Intercepting drones that attack from deep inside enemy territory has a surprise factor as it involves advanced technology as well as a skilled military strategy.
Making deadly drones is part of the strategy
Officials and weapons experts say espionage and covert operations have long been part of warfare. But building or deploying lethal drones to surprise and intimidate the enemy is part of a constantly evolving strategy of warfare.
A similar incident occurred two weeks ago when more than 40 Russian warplanes were targeted by a swarm of 117 drones. They were secretly planted by Ukraine months ago near Russian military bases. Some of these were thousands of miles away from Ukraine. The same thing happened in Iran. On Friday, its missiles, interceptors and air defense systems were destroyed by drones and other weapons.
These drones were smuggled there in advance by Israeli intelligence officers. However, many details about how the covert operations were carried out remain unclear, both in terms of intelligence gathering methods and the safety of intelligence sources. But Israel's approach gave it an edge in its massive attack against Iran.
