The Jerusalem Post reports: “The IDF and Mossad are preparing for a developing threat against Israel from Iranian-backed militias in Iraq, sources in the Northern Command told Walla on Friday.
The Iranians have been investing significant resources in pro-Iranian militias and terrorist infrastructure in Iraq, so that, on the day of command, they can attack Israel from the air and by land.
It was further reported that recently, Esmail Qaani, the commander of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps-Quds Force (IRGC-QF), visited Iraq and met with senior militia leaders.
The main method of attack would likely involve launching missiles and drones from Iraqi territory, following a pattern similar to the one used during the Israel-Hamas war against Israel’s home front.
A secondary option could be a ground maneuver beginning in Iraq, moving through Syria, and potentially reaching the Israel-Jordan border…”
