Tensions remain high in the Golan Heights weeks after Iran flew a drone into Israeli airspace at the beginning of April and following rocket fire from Syria over Passover. The latest incident involved an Israeli drone crashing in Syria and reports of IDF artillery fire.

Although the report from Iran’s Tasnim News Agency was short, it illustrated how Iran’s focus on Israel continues to be laser-pointed at the Syrian front. The drone incident at the beginning of the month was the latest by Iran against Israel. It sent a drone into Israeli airspace from the T-4 base in February 2018 and another from Iraq in May 2021.

Not only that, but Iran threatened Israel directly with drones – flown from Iran itself last February – that were downed by US coalition aircraft. Israel also used F-35s to shoot down Iranian drones in early 2021. Earlier, Iran had used drones flown from Chabahar to target commercial ships in the Gulf of Oman.
