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.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has told senior members of the negotiating team that he "prefers the Philadelphi Axis at this time if it comes down to a choice between the hostages and maintaining control over the corridor," according to Israeli Channel 12.

Simultaneously, Israeli military spokesperson Daniel Hagari stated that "work is ongoing round the clock to create favorable conditions" for the return of all captives from Gaza while acknowledging the "inability to return all captives through military operations."

Hagari announced that an investigation will be conducted into the deaths of the six captives whose bodies were recovered from Gaza on Tuesday, claiming that the circumstances of their deaths "remain unclear."

Earlier, Israeli media revealed that five of the six Israeli captives retrieved from Gaza today were killed in Israeli aggression during the ground invasion of Khan Younis six months ago.

Channel 12 cited the Israeli occupation forces as saying their attacks on Khan Younis could have killed the captives. 

Meanwhile, Israeli newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth revealed that the captives suffocated to death in a tunnel after a fire broke out due to the Israeli bombardment of the area. 

In the same context, The Wall Street Journal cited Israeli security officials as saying that it is generally believed that "more hostages will return killed," if a ceasefire deal that could save them is not reached. 

The newspaper claimed that most security officials in the occupation "insist that reaching an agreement is the only way to secure the release of the remaining 105 captives," who were taken on October 7.

WSJ quoted a former Israeli intelligence official as saying that "most of the hostages will not return to Israel unless an agreement is reached."
