If it comes to open war, and Israel is unrestrained by Western powers, Iran doesn’t stand a chance. That was the conclusion hinted at by an Iranian soldier in a media interview earlier this week.

What the Iranian soldier didn’t know was that he was speaking to a local source who works for Israel’s Channel 14 News.

“The Israeli systems and forces are far more advanced and professional than the capabilities of the Islamic Republic, whose equipment is outdated,” he admitted.

Indeed, on October 26, over 100 Israeli aircraft took part in “Operation Days of Repentance,” striking dozens of targets all across Iran, seemingly at will.

While the ayatollah regime initially downplayed the Israeli strike, details have since come to light revealing the significance of the targets and the damage caused.

The soldier secretly recorded by Channel 14 revealed that he works at a base in Parandak to the southwest of Tehran, and that it is one of the most important Iranian military bases in the region.

An Israeli drone dropped one bomb on the base. The soldier believes Israel was unaware of the status of the base, and that the Israeli aircraft were merely testing the regional air defenses. “It is a highly sensitive and important place commanded by two generals,” he explained. “If Israel knew, there’s no doubt they would bomb it [more extensively]. The site contains a large number of missiles underground.”
