An Iranian flight suspected to be ferrying arms to the Hezbollah terror group in Lebanon was blocked by the Israeli Air Force overnight between Saturday and Sunday, November 30 – December 1, Israeli media reports.
IAF fighter jets intercepted the Iranian plane over Syria and ordered it to turn around, and it did a short while later, a defense source said.
The incident was first reported by another Israeli news outlet, although the site showed a screenshot of flight data from an unrelated Iranian Mahan Air plane that landed in Syria’s coastal city of Latakia in the afternoon hours of Saturday.
In recent months, the IDF has forced several Iranian flights to make U-turns over Syrian or Iraqi airspace, after they were suspected of carrying weapons to Hezbollah.
The IDF has said that it would continue to act to prevent all weapon deliveries to the Lebanese terror group, including by striking shipments anywhere in Lebanon or Syria. (TOI/VFI News)
“Our Heavenly Father, we pray for peace with all our neighbors and for the terrorist organization Hezbollah to be completely dismantled. Help us live peacefully in the land You have given our forefathers. We know that there is a time for peace and a time for war but also that the peacemakers will be called the children of God. In Yeshua’s name we pray that You guide us, cause our enemies to stop all fighting, and protect us and our families from harm. We thank You for the blessings You give us daily and the defense forces You have entrusted with our protection.”
