The drone that penetrated deep into Israeli airspace nearly
two weeks ago was manufactured in Germany by Siemens and Bockstiegel,
and purchased by a fictitious Iranian company that was a front for
Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), the Lebanese newspaper
Al-Jumhuriya reported on Wednesday.
According to the report, Siemens manufactured
the drone’s camera and remote control parts while Bockstiegel, which
produces ships, provided light metal parts.
Last week, Hezbollah’s chief Hassan Nasrallah
confirmed responsibility for launching the aircraft, which he claimed
was made in Iran.
The Lebanese newspaper’s report also stated
that Hezbollah possessed a large arsenal of similar UAVs (unmanned
aerial vehicles) whose main purpose was to spy, not attack.
