Israeli media reported that Iran's unveiling of its Mohajer-10 drone is considered a major challenge to the Israeli occupation, pointing out that the announcement comes after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu accused Tehran of financing the recent operations in the occupied West Bank against Israeli settlers.

The Israeli Channel 12 indicated that Iran threatens "Israel" once again, but this time via a video in Hebrew, which is considered a challenge and an unprecedented event in the recent period.

The Arab affairs correspondent for Channel 12, Yaron Schneider, pointed out that what matters about the Mohajer-10 drone is that it has a range of 2,000 kilometers, which means that its range "covers all of Israel."

Schneider stressed that the challenge is the phrase "prepare the shelters," which appeared in Hebrew on the video unveiling the drone, adding that the Iranians want to show that they have a response to all attacks against them and threats attributed to "Israel".

Schneider recalled Iranian threats to the occupation entity, saying Iran makes threats through drones sent toward "Israel", claiming that some of these drones crossed the borders from Syria.

The Israeli correspondent also claimed that this is the first time that Iran carries out such "a provocation" and displays weapons capable of threatening "Israel".

On its part, the Israeli newspaper Haaretz also touched on the unveiling of the Mohajer-10 drone, saying it resembles the US MQ-9 Reaper.

The newspaper also considered the phrase "prepare the shelters" an unprecedented Iranian threat against "Israel", adding that the announcement highlights Iran's "rising tensions with Israel."
