During the main news broadcast, I24 News exposed a rare conversation conducted by channel sources with a senior official from the other side of the Syrian border. This senior and well-informed source revealed claims of an unprecedented security reality that is allegedly known to IDF senior officials but hidden from Israeli citizens.
According to this source, the Iranian ring of fire around Israel is expanding day by day. In the conversation, the source revealed that "in recent days, Houthi operatives arrived from Iraq to southern Syria to open a new front of unmanned aerial vehicle fire against Israel."
In addition, he explained that most weapons smuggling into Israel, including those on the Jordanian border, originate from Syria on Iran's behalf. The goal, contrary to what is often claimed regarding smuggling, is not for criminal purposes but for building terrorist infrastructure in Judea and Samaria.
The same source even claims that a detail known to senior IDF command but not yet published in Israel is the existence of terror and smuggling tunnels. According to the official, these tunnels pass under the Jordan-Israel border and are used for direct smuggling by Iranians and elements working to undermine the Jordanian monarchy by sowing instability in the region.
