Through Mideastwire: " Published in Cheragh on Monday, April 30: Recently the Spanish newspaper El Pais reported that its country would hire 4 pilotless Israeli spy planes at a cost of €17 million for the Spanish military forces in Afghanistan. The planes are able to fly for 12 hours non-stop. The planes are also able to send videos to ground forces using onboard night-vision cameras. The most shocking element of this story is that ten Israeli military personnel will also enter Afghanistan under the terms of the contract to help the Spanish forces use the planes." (thanks Paul)
