Israel<\/a> hacked into Tehran’s traffic cameras in order to surveil the daily life of senior Iranian figures in preparation for Operation Roaring Lion<\/a>, during which the regime’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei was killed, according to a report by the Financial Times published on Monday.<\/p>\n

According to the report, the Israeli intelligence discovered a “life pattern” for Khamenei<\/a> and his security personnel, including travel routes, hours of activity, and the identities of the senior figures who were usually with the late Iranian leader.<\/p>\n

The report also mentions that Israel used Artificial Intelligence tools, alongside algorithms, to sort through vast amounts of information that was gathered about the Iranian leadership and its movements.<\/p>\n

Additionally, the US Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) provided an additional human source to certify the exact location where Khamenei was set to be on the day of his assassination.<\/p>\n

The FT report details that Israel attacked the compound where Khamenei was being guarded using Sparrow missiles, while the planes<\/a> were deployed during the day in order to achieve tactical surprise, even with the high level of alert in Iran.<\/p>\n

In total, 30 missiles were fired against the compound, while cellular towers in the area had been disrupted, so that the security personnel\u2019s phones could not receive warning calls.<\/p>\n

The operation included signals intelligence, cellular network penetration, and the American source confirming that the meeting was taking place.<\/p>\n

FT also mentioned that the planning for the operation started in 2001, when the former prime minister Ariel Sharon ordered the Mossad to make Iran its main target.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Israel hacked into Tehran’s traffic cameras in order to surveil the daily life of senior Iranian figures in…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":628913,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[2],"tags":[9418,99,32987,172695,50,266253],"class_list":["post-628912","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-news","tag-ayatollah-ali-khamenei","tag-israel","tag-khamenei","tag-khamenei-israel","tag-news","tag-operation-roaring-lion"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/628912","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=628912"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/628912\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/628913"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=628912"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=628912"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=628912"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
