Iranian bloggers are claiming that Mossad agents secretly paved an asphalt road near the city of Isfahan to support the rescue of a U.S. pilot whose aircraft was reportedly shot down inside Iran. According to the claims, the road was constructed in a remote desert area to allow American aircraft and helicopters to land during the operation.
The allegation has renewed attention on what is described as the depth of Israeli intelligence and operational reach inside the Islamic Republic. If accurate, the reported construction of a landing route within Iranian territory would suggest extensive planning, logistical capability, and the ability to operate undetected by local security services.
The claims add to earlier reports surrounding the rescue mission, which was described as one of the most dramatic incidents in the confrontation involving Iran. The American pilot was extracted after spending hours in hostile territory. At the same time, another crew member reportedly remained hidden in mountainous terrain for an extended period before later being rescued in a separate complex U.S. operation.
Iranian officials have previously argued that the rescue mission may not have been solely aimed at recovering U.S. personnel, but could have served as cover for a broader operation near Isfahan. The new claims regarding the road align with that narrative, although there has been no official confirmation of the allegation.
