Illyria Posted Wednesday at 05:23 PM Israeli travelers stranded in Cyprus by fighting begin return trip by boat Cyprus’ chief Rabbi Arie Zeev Raskin told The Associated Press that approximately 6,500 Israelis were in Cyprus after being diverted to the east Mediterranean island, the closest European nation to Israel, or traveling there voluntarily in hopes of catching a flight or boat trip back to their country. Cyprus has become a key transit point for the repatriation of third-country nationals fleeing conflict areas in the region, as well as Israelis and others wishing to return home in the absence of direct flights there. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/cyprus-israeli-israelis-limassol-iran-b2773092.html Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Illyria Posted Wednesday at 05:38 PM OVER 30,000 ISRAELIS HAVE FLED TO CYPRUS BY SEA DUE TO IRAN'S ATTACKS Following the closure of Israeli airspace and the suspension of operations at Ben Gurion International Airport, which was evacuated and emptied of passengers, travel options for civilians became severely limited. With no commercial flights available, those with means began chartering yachts and private vessels to reach Cyprus, a nearby island just about 170 kilometers from Israel’s coast. Israeli media outlets such as Haaretz and Channel 12 have documented hundreds of these sea departures, with some passengers paying thousands of dollars for passage. Prices for a seat on these yachts reportedly range from $800 to several thousand dollars, depending on the vessel and conditions.

Xaaji Xunjuf Posted Wednesday at 08:02 PM 2 hours ago, Illyria said: Winner and losers after the dust has settled. Iran: - On its own, Iran has shown it is more capable than anticipated by the West, - Has not shown its full hand yet, - Has greater weapons than it had used in the conflict, - Can quietly fight for months without needing external support, Strength: - Iran has missile technology very few nations have, - Its drone technology is advanced, Weakness: - Iran is weakest in the air, and its air defences had been compromised, - Its human intel and covert operations are the weakest. !srael: !srael has been shown to be no more than a paper tiger no match for Iran in an actual war, - Can fight no more than a week without the US, and Western allies supplying it with weapons and intel, - Can fight in the air, and could barely defeat Hamas or Hizba Allah on the ground on its own, - Tel Abib & Ha'ifa had sustained considerable damages with some neighbourhoods looking more like Gaza, - Is hiding its human loss estimated above 300 +/- by independent sources, - Its covert operations, spying tactics, and human intel are superior, and managed to launch attacks from inside Iran. Winners: - China, Iran, Hamas. Losers: - !srael, with the veil lifted, its vulnerabilities had been exposed, and is no longer the super sub-station / military outpost the West intended it to be, - The Muslim world except Pakistan & UAE, the only nations to have openly supported Iran. Sheep all round where one nation is taken out at a time whilst the rest stand on the sidelines watching. - The ever so gullible US tax payer. thats not true the iran nuclear program has been send back decades and israel killed top iranian generals it also killed hamas leader inside iran it also killed hezbolla leader in the heart land of lebanon i think israel can say it won this round , though iran isnt defeated it has been damaged severly will they recover hmm time will tell Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Illyria Posted Wednesday at 10:44 PM it is actually true. You mean like Gen. Qani? The only Sr Officer wounded was the Air Force General, the rest are fine. Zionist propaganda on full swing. As for the damage to Iran's nuclear programme, even CNN could not go along with the lies. Early US intel assessment suggests strikes on Iran did not destroy nuclear sites, sources say. The assessment, which has not been previously reported, was produced by the Defense Intelligence Agency, the Pentagon’s intelligence arm. It is based on a battle damage assessment conducted by US Central Command in the aftermath of the US strikes, one of the sources said. Two of the people familiar with the assessment said Iran’s stockpile of enriched uranium was not destroyed. One of the people said the centrifuges are largely “intact.” Exclusive: Early US intel assessment suggests strikes on Iran did not destroy nuclear sites, sources say | CNN Politics WWW.CNN.COM The US military strikes on three of Iran’s nuclear facilities last weekend did not destroy the core components of the country’s nuclear...
