The nuclear scientists were killed using a special weapon whose details were barred from publication, Channel 12 says.
The 10th nuclear scientist was killed shortly after the other nine, as part of the overnight Thursday-Friday Israeli operation, which included strikes on Iran’s ballistic missile program and the Natanz nuclear site, along with the elimination of top members of the Islamic Republic’s military leadership, the network says.
The nuclear scientists were all killed while they were sleeping in their beds, with Israel deciding to carry out the assassinations simultaneously so that there wouldn’t be time to tip off those being targeted.
The scientists apparently believed they were safe from such targeting in their homes, a senior Israeli official tells Channel 12, noting that previously assassinated nuclear scientists were killed while heading to their cars after work.
Israel had been tracking Iranian nuclear scientists for years and the ten killed last week were marked for assassination in November of last year, Channel 12 says.
Just when I feel like dystopian news can’t really disturb me anymore…
Leaving this totally unrelated article about Palantir and Israel here for absolutely no reason at all…
How Israel Uses AI in Gaza—And What It Might Mean for the Future of Warfare:
A program known as “The Gospel” generates suggestions for buildings and structures militants may be operating in. “Lavender” is programmed to identify suspected members of Hamas and other armed groups for assassination, from commanders all the way down to foot soldiers. “Where’s Daddy?” reportedly follows their movements by tracking their phones in order to target them—often to their homes, where their presence is regarded as confirmation of their identity. The air strike that follows might kill everyone in the target’s family, if not everyone in the apartment building.
Abraham, whose report relies on conversations with six Israeli intelligence officers with first-hand experience in Gaza operations after Oct. 7, quoted targeting officers as saying they found themselves deferring to the Lavender program, despite knowing that it produces incorrect targeting suggestions in roughly 10% of cases.
How can people be so fucking stupid as to keep their key personnel vulnerable like that?
How can people be so fucking stupid as to believe a pissrahelli source.
They lie when they open their mouth
I mean it hadn’t happened before so it is understandable
Hey don’t worry about Mossad and the USA, just close your curtains tonight in the house you’ve lived in for 40 years. You’ll be fine.
I mean, if I was a key part of the nuclear program of the US, and there was another country specifically targeting the US’s nuclear program, I would assume myself to be a target.
Sure, but you can’t take unilateral security steps, because, well, you know, YOU ARE PART OF A NUCLEAR PROGRAM
You need to submit to the security policies already in place
At most, you can give suggestions, etc, but the final word is with the person in charge of security. That’s probably the deal you signed on for.
And can’t complain, that’s why you signed the NDA, voluntarily of course
Incompetence is the hallmark of the mullahs’ regime
Then how are they a threat?
Donald Trump is an incompetent idiot. Doesn’t mean he’s not a threat to anyone.
He’s perfectly competent, just not for you.
I don’t know how much of a threat they are, but incompetence and ability to harm are two different things

Oh are they also bombing refugees that they themselves created? My goodness, someone should stop that!
Humans have rights, not states, and Israel’s existence as an apartheid state is mutually exclusive with the rights of the humans living there.
jeez you’re a racist scumbag POS.
It’s not racist to say that a theocracy scares a lot of smart people away. I know multiple Iranian families who all fled Iran after 1979 and came to Europe. All highly educated, all very opposed to the Islamic Republic that ruined their country.
Here, the effect is notable enough to have its own Wiki article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_capital_flight_from_Iran
Wikipedia sucks ass.
And 1979? LOL
When they removed the US installed shah regime.
The Iranian equivalent of Cuban gusanos.
The US/UK ruined their country when these vultures overthrew the democratic Mossadeq regime to steal their oil as always.
And you know it.
Iranians are highly educated now,
They produce as many engineering graduates annually as the United States.
70% of them are WOMEN.
So suck on that and stick to playing your games kid.
As opposed to the upper limit of morality and ethics of those who are carrying out the unprovoked attacks?
