According to several analysts, recent crackdowns have made some Iranians more willing to pass information, cooperate quietly with outside actors, or expose vulnerabilities in the regime’s security apparatus.
Israeli intelligence officials and regional analysts say that Israel’s visibility inside Iran has expanded significantly since the outbreak of the war, giving Jerusalem a deeper, more granular understanding of Tehran’s military, political, and covert activities than at any point in the last decade.
According to multiple experts, the combination of intensified intelligence collection, expanded human networks, and accelerated technological monitoring has produced a sharper, more actionable picture of Iran’s strategic landscape.
Col. (res.) Most, a former senior intelligence officer with long experience in the Iranian arena, says the shift is unmistakable.
