Israel carried out covert attacks on two major natural gas pipelines inside Iran this week, disrupting the flow of heat and cooking gas to provinces with millions of people, according to two Western officials and a military strategist affiliated with Iran’s Revolutionary Guards Corps.

The strikes represent a notable shift in the shadow war that Israel and Iran have been waging by air, land, sea and cyberattack for years.

Israel has long targeted military and nuclear sites inside Iran — and assassinated Iranian nuclear scientists and commanders, both inside and outside of the country. Israel has also waged cyberattacks to disable servers belonging to the oil ministry, causing turmoil at gas stations nationwide.

          It’s only September 11th, which resulted in a 20 year war ~300,000 deaths (~800,000 if you include Iraq).

          Iran is welcome to screw around and find out. Operation Praying Mantis take two?

            I wonder why that happened. Its a mystery that we will never know. Anyway, dont you have any intelligence agency who could have prevented that?

          Nah, I’m just someone living in the real world and not a fantasy world constructed to conform to social media narratives.

            You give jordan as an example of a legitimate invasion. Are you really trying to be taken seriously?
