Amid rising tensions with Iran, jeeps have been blocked in large parts of Israel to disrupt the satellite navigation of missiles and drones, the BBC reported, BTA reported.
Iran promised to retaliate for Monday's attack on the building of the Iranian consulate in Syria. Thirteen people were then killed, including the influential General of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, Mohammed Reza Zahedi. The strike is believed to have been carried out by Israel; the country's authorities have not commented officially.
The Israel Defense Forces suspended the leave of all members of combat units and units. A day earlier, the country called on reservists from the air defense units.
As far as can be determined, Israeli authorities consider it likely that Iran will attack the country as early as today. It is Al-Quds Day (the Arabic name for Jerusalem) and the last Friday of the holy month of Ramadan. Pro-Palestinian and anti-Israel rallies are often organized on this day, especially in Iran. Jeep jamming began in central Israel yesterday. Residents of major cities, including Tel Aviv and Jerusalem, which are far from the war zone of the Gaza Strip, also felt it. Applications that depend on geolocation did not function normally.
For example, a BBC producer in Jerusalem had her phone show that she was in Cairo. The GPSJAM monitoring service records widespread jeep malfunctions throughout Israel.
