In a well-planned and ultimately very successful operation, the IDF hit an Iranian underground missile-production facility in Syria, using commando heli-born forces.
This type of mission is extremely complex, involves deception and diversion, and a variety of aircraft. We can say this because CDM has a variety of highly-trained and experienced special operators on staff.
Members of the Israeli Air Force’s elite Shaldag unit raided the Scientific Studies and Research Center, known as CERS or SSRC, in the Masyaf area on September 8, to demolish an underground facility used by Iranian forces to manufacture precision missiles for Hezbollah.
The site lies more than 200 kilometers (124 miles) north of Israel, though only about 45 kilometers (28 miles) from Syria’s western coastline.
The IDF had been monitoring the site for more than five years, targeting its facilities numerous times, although it identified that the airstrikes were not sufficient to target some of the underground infrastructure established by the Iranians at CERS.
