Recently, classified documents leaked on social media platforms shed light on Israel’s plans to use ballistic missiles against Iran, prompting Tehran to anticipate the attack patterns. The leak forced Israel to revise its strategies and delay the attack, as verified by US officials.
Israel had planned to target Iranian Revolutionary Guard military installations as retaliation for Tehran’s October 1 attack, excluding Iran’s nuclear or oil infrastructure. The leaked documents revealed Israeli military preparations, including missile exercises and air force maneuvers.
The documents detailed the preparation of air-launched ballistic missiles, including those codenamed “Golden Horizon” and “ISO2” or “Rocks.” The latter, developed by Israeli defense contractor Rafael, is designed to hit targets from long distances at supersonic speeds.
The leak has strained relations between Israel and the US, raising concerns about the handling of classified information. The ongoing investigation focuses on determining who had access to the leaked documents, which were widely circulated on social media and picked up by major news outlets like CNN.
