Hezbollah is believed to have been using a copy of an Israeli missile to fight Israeli forces in the ongoing war in Lebanon. The group is using advanced missiles which were reverse-engineered from an Israeli weapon it captured in a past war, The New York Times reported. Hezbollah fighters reportedly seized the original Israeli Spike anti-tank missiles during the 2006 Israeli-Hezbollah war in Lebanon. After capturing the Israeli weapons, Hezbollah shipped them to its ally, Iran, for cloning, Israeli and Western defence officials and weapons experts claim. Eighteen years after the 2006 war with Israel, the Iran-backed group is firing the rebranded Almas missiles at top Israeli targets, The Times reported. Video: AP/AFP/Reutersn18oc_world n18oc_crux
