According to Ukrainian intelligence, Moscow handed over Tehran received the coordinates of 55 important Israeli energy facilities. Russian experts classified the targets according to their level of importance - from key power plants, such as Orot Rabin, to regional substations and industrial hubs.
The vulnerability of Israel's energy system
Moscow has emphasised to Iran that Israel is an «energy island», as it cannot import electricity from its neighbours. Even limited damage to strategic facilities could lead to a national blackout and a collapse of the energy system.
