New York Times: Reports of a second secret Israeli base in Iraq

Iraqi officials are confirming the existence of a second, previously undeclared, secret base in the desert of western Iraq, according to an investigation by the prestigious media outlet The New York Times.

As the American newspaper reports, this facility is suspected to have been built in late 2024 by the Israeli military and was used during the 12-day war against Iran in June 2025. The information is attributed to Iraqi security officials.

The investigation also adds that an Iraqi shepherd was killed after allegedly accidentally spotting the base in early March.

The Israeli military, according to the New York Times, declined to comment on either the existence of the bases or the death of the shepherd.
