  Yeah, looks like a normal weight even for a chihuahua is above 1.5 kg (dogslim.com/articles/dog-weight-chart.html), with grey-headed flying foxes (the largest Australian bat) weighing typically less than 1 kg (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grey-headed_flying_fox). It’s maybe possible their ‘leg-span’ - excluding wings - could be similar, though? No idea.

  Well, Israel/USA has been hostile to Iran for a long time. Iran is the last state in the region that stands against US interests. There’s a lot of people who want a war against them.

  It could also serve in misdirecting attention while Israel escalate their crimes in Gaza. Israel took out Gaza’s last internet cable in the day before their attacks on Iran: reuters.com/…/un-says-full-internet-blackout-gaza…
