Reaction of Israeli Media to the Release of Images of a Female Israeli Pilot

WANA (Aug 04) – The Israeli newspaper Israel Hayom, in a report referring to the release of images of a female Israeli pilot by the Islamic Republic of Iran’s state television, described the matter as serious and dangerous.

In its report titled “Iranian Television Reveals Identity of Israeli Air Force Pilot,” the newspaper stated that Iran’s state broadcaster had disclosed the identity of a female pilot in the Israeli Air Force and, in addition, had aired images of her husband and child.

Israel Hayom added that the leaked information included the rank, position, and squadron number in which the female Israeli pilot serves.

The Israeli outlet stressed that it remains unclear how Iranian authorities obtained the photographs and information about the pilot.

Earlier, the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB) had announced through the release of a video that, for the first time, images and information on several Israeli pilots involved in the bombing of Iranian civilians had been exposed.

At dawn on Friday, June 13, as Israel launched a terrorist assault on Tehran and several other Iranian cities, a number of military commanders, scientists, and civilians were killed, marking the beginning of the imposed war.

According to official statements, among those killed in the Israeli regime’s attack on Iran were Major General Mohammad Bagheri, Chief of the General Staff of the Armed Forces; Major General Hossein Salami, Commander-in-Chief of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC); Major General Amir Ali Hajizadeh, Commander of the IRGC Aerospace Force; Major General Gholam Ali Rashid, Commander of Khatam al-Anbia Central Headquarters; Brigadier General Kazemi, Head of IRGC Intelligence Organization; Brigadier General Ali Shadmani; Brigadier General Mohammad Saeed Izadi; Brigadier General Davoud Shekhiyan, Commander of IRGC Aerospace Air Defense; as well as renowned nuclear scientists Mohammad Mehdi Tehranji, Fereydoun Abbasi, Seyed Amir Hossein Faqihi, Abdolhamid Minouchahr, Mohammad Reza Zalfaghari, and Matlabi-Zadeh.

In the early hours of Sunday, June 22, the United States also attacked three nuclear facilities in Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan.

After 12 days of Israeli assaults on Iran and the Iranian Armed Forces’ powerful retaliatory responses, a ceasefire was declared on the morning of Tuesday, June 24, following Israel’s unconditional request.
