BREAKING
Abu Zaid: I believe that the Iranian operation was multi-layered, combining cyber and electronic attacks with coordinated on-the-ground infiltrations by agents
Abu Zaid: Usually, archives of such sensitivity are typically protected by a full-scale security system, but it appears that Iranian intelligence managed to make use of a gap in it
Strategic military expert Nidal Abu Zaid: Iran has stripped "Israel" of the superiority and deterrence long boasted by its security minister, chief of staff, and other top officials
Fallahpour: Iran may use these documents in its battle with the United States and Western countries over its nuclear program
Fallahpour: Iran may have obtained additional documents related to "Israel's" regional projects, not just its nuclear program
Fallahpour: The coming weeks will be full of surprises, as Iran has forced Israeli intelligence agencies into a state of psychological exhaustion
Al Mayadeen's correspondent in Tehran, Siavash Fallahpour: Iran has redefined the concept of deterrence, shifting it away from traditional military balance toward a new strategic framework
Sources to Al Mayadeen: Number of documents so great that merely studying them, along with accompanying images and footage will require a great deal of time.
Sources to Al Mayadeen: Large data trove was confirmed to have arrived to "safe sites".
Sources to Al Mayadeen: Operation had taken place in past, but large size of documents and need to transfer entire batch inside Iran necessitated secrecy.

"Israel" has announced the purchase of 25 "next generation" F-15 fighter jets in a $5.2 billion agreement with Boeing, funded through US military aid, according to the occupation entity's Security Ministry.

The contract includes an option for an additional 25 jets, with deliveries expected to begin in 2031 at a rate of four to six aircraft per year, the Ministry confirmed in a statement.

The F-15IA jets would be "equipped with cutting-edge weapons systems, including the integration of cutting-edge Israeli technologies," the statement highlighted.

It added that the upgraded aircraft will offer enhanced range, payload capacity, and performance across various operational scenarios.

"These advantages will enable the Israeli Air Force to maintain its strategic superiority in addressing current and future challenges in the Middle East."

Since the outset of the war on Gaza, "Israel" has secured nearly $40 billion in arms deals, according to Security Ministry Director General Eyal Zamir.

"While focusing on immediate needs for advanced weaponry and ammunition at unprecedented levels, we're simultaneously investing in long-term strategic capabilities," he pointed out in the statement.

He emphasized that "this F-15 squadron, alongside the third F-35 squadron procured earlier this year, represents a historic enhancement of our air power and strategic reach -- capabilities that proved crucial during the current war."

Since October last year, the Israeli Air Force has conducted relentless airstrikes in the region, killing 43,391 people in the Gaza Strip and more than 3,000 others in Lebanon, in addition to leveling civilian infrastructure.

Israeli aircraft have also been used in repeated assaults on Syria and Yemen, as well as Iran.

In late September, "Israel" received a new US military aid package totaling $8.7 billion.

Ido Nehushtan, president of Boeing Israel, pointed to the long-standing relationship with the Israeli occupation entity and confirmed the company's commitment to "working with the U.S. and Israeli governments to deliver the advanced F-15IA aircraft through standard military procurement channels."
