- Former Israeli official warned of increased threats abroad.
Iran has reportedly raised the alert level at strategic infrastructure sites due to escalating regional tensions and a recent attempted hijacking of a FlyDubai plane. Israeli officials, however, continue to deny any involvement in the incident, stating that there is currently no indication of Iranian planning behind the event. Investigations into the circumstances of the attempted hijacking are ongoing, and Israel has not yet obtained complete information regarding the suspect and their motives.
Despite the denials, former National Security Advisor Meir Ben Shabbat warned that Israelis and Jews abroad should prepare for an increase in attempts to harm them. He described the ongoing conflict between Iran and European nations not as a conventional war, but as a multi-dimensional hybrid campaign involving gray zone warfare, proxy terrorism, cyberattacks, and economic influence.
The article also references a previous statement by Mohsen Rezai, who suggested that Iran's revenge was "in the air" following recent events, implying a potential Iranian response. This statement, coupled with Iran's heightened alert status, suggests a significant level of regional instability.
