The Israeli defense establishment tonight (Friday) maintains a wireless silence regarding the assassination of Muhsin Fahrizadeh, who was behind Iran's military nuclear program.

While Chief of Staff Aviv Kochavi contented himself with announcing a meeting with the former chiefs of staff a few hours before the explosion, Defense Minister Bnei Gantz left the Kirya in Tel Aviv around 4:30 PM, about an hour after the incident.



Ganz's immediate entourage declined to comment on the foreign publications.

However, the assassination of a senior Iranian who is receiving high media attention, the intelligence community in Israel is increasing attention.

The IDF is automatically alert to any change in the Middle East, emphasizing various types of threats to Israel and its interests in the world, including embassies.



Only a few weeks ago, the IDF practiced the Air Force's air defense system as part of a "deadly arrow."

The exercise simulated dealing with missile launches of various types from Lebanon and Syria.

Distant arenas have also been incorporated into an exercise such as Yemen, where Iran is forging close cooperation with the Houthi rebels, Iraq in which Iran holds missile bases according to foreign publications.

Tehran itself has also been included in the scenarios, as it already has a large arsenal of ballistic missiles capable of hitting the Israeli home front.

As a rule, a covert campaign between wars leads to asymmetrical responses to such assassinations rather than direct actions.

It can be estimated that the ayatollahs' regime and its people will not act directly against the state responsible for the assassination.

If she tries to take revenge, she will do so through emissaries against the interests of that country.



The assassination puts Iran in a rather complex situation.

After the assassination of Qassem Suleimani, who was the brainchild of military activity, it is required to face the efforts of US President Donald Trump to exhaust his view before the change of government.

In the background - a variety of foreign publications on the possibility of direct US action against it.



Added to this are the heavy sanctions that have severely damaged the Iranian economy and the corona plague that has taken a heavy toll.

It can be estimated that based on all this, the Iranians will not be in a hurry to charge a price from those responsible for killing the scientist and dragging Tehran into escalation.



As of this writing, there is no change in the level of alertness of Israeli embassies around the world.

Along the borders the constant high alert against the missiles is maintained.

The strategy: stay away from the nucleus

Regardless of the assassination, in recent weeks there has been a dialogue between the political echelon and the defense establishment on the issue of strategy against Iran.

The influence of Israel's unofficial coalition with countries such as Saudi Arabia, Egypt, the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain stood out.

The common denominator is the fear of a nuclear Iran and the intentions of President-elect Joe Biden to return to the nuclear deal.

All countries like Israel see Iran as the main threat to their survival.



According to security officials, although his office is about to end, Trump administration pressured Iran through sanctions and no one institution and the army would not be surprised if soon the American president would impose further sanctions package Ayatollah regime that will oblige Biden adopt an aggressive approach.



Factors highlighted In the same dialogue that the main goal of the Mossad and the IDF, as directed by the political echelon, is to remove Iran from its nuclear program.

This strategy connects to the interests of other Sunni countries in the Middle East including the United States.

From the point of view of the defense establishment, the Iranian challenge is divided into several layers.

The first - the nuclear project.

The second is Iranian regional aggression.

The third is a military intensification that is reflected in the development of ballistic missiles that reach a range of 3,000 km. Another layer is the establishment in Syria and Lebanon. Well with foreign publications about air force attacks against Iran and Hezbollah targets in the past week in Syria.
