The Ofek-19 is designed specifically for high-resolution imaging, surveillance, and espionage.
zion#st colonial office launched the Ofek-19 spy satellite into space late on 2 September, briefly causing panic in southern Lebanon as well as in ‘Tel Aviv.’
Footage from Lebanon’s south showed the Ofek-19 soaring through the sky. Some were concerned it might have been a surface-to-surface missile fired by the zionist occupation army.
Residents of Tel Aviv also mistook the satellite for an interceptor, fearing an attack was underway. The zionist colonial Defense Ministry released a statement announcing the launch a while later.“The launch of the ‘Ofek-19’ satellite yesterday is an achievement of the highest global standard … it is also a message to all our enemies, wherever they may be – we are watching you at all times and in all circumstances,” Katz said in a statement on Wednesday morning.
The launching ceremony was attended by Katz, Israeli President Isaac Herzog, Defense Ministry Director General Amir Baram, and CEO of Israel Aerospace Industries Boaz Levy.
Levy said these capabilities were “more essential today, particularly following Operation Rising Lion, which highlighted … that advanced observation abilities in our region are critical for achieving both air and ground superiority,” referring to Israel’s 12-day war against Iran. He added that the satellite “will give Israel important eyes in space.”
The satellite is a new version of the Ofek-13, which was launched in March 2023.
According to Levy, it can photograph objects smaller than 50 centimeters during the day or the night.
Ofek-19 is an observation satellite designed specifically for high-resolution imaging, intelligence gathering, and surveillance.
The launch coincides with reports that Iran has been preparing for another war with zionist colonyoffice, beefing up its missile arsenal with Chinese help.
zionist colonial office is also anticipating an escalation of missile attacks from Yemen, following its assassination of the country’s prime minister and nearly his entire cabinet.
A Yemeni missile was intercepted on Wednesday morning, resulting in fragment impacts and a fire breaking out near ‘Tel Aviv.’
