Israel: We Didn’t Target Iranian General

Iranian Revolutionary Guard General Mohammed Allahdadi, killed in an Israeli air strike in Syria, was not the intended target, and Israel believed it was attacking only low-ranking guerrillas, a senior Israeli security source said.

“We thought we were hitting an enemy field unit that was on its way to carry out an attack on us at the frontier fence,” the source said.

“We got the alert, we spotted the vehicle, identified it as an enemy vehicle, and took the shot. We saw this as a limited tactical operation.”
