"Israel and Allies Successfully Thwarted 50 Iranian Terror Plots, Reveals Gallant"
Israel and its allies have thwarted over 50 attempted terror attacks by Iran against Israelis and Jews worldwide in recent years, according to Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant. The ongoing shadow war between Iran and Israel has involved sabotage attacks, assassinations, and cyberattacks. Gallant made the remarks during a visit to Azerbaijan, where he discussed strengthening strategic ties and cooperation against shared challenges with President Ilham Aliyev. Israel has been expanding its bilateral relationship with Azerbaijan, a country closely allied with Turkey and a major arms supplier for Israel. The relationship is based on Azerbaijan's location on Iran's northern border and Israel's oil imports from Baku.
