Iran’s Intelligence Ministry claims it foiled an alleged Mossad-backed assassination plot and arrested several suspects across the country.
Officials say a 4-member cell was detained in West Azerbaijan Province before it could target sensitive facilities and carry out an assassination in Tehran. One suspect was reportedly killed during the operation, while 3 others were arrested.
Iranian authorities also claim they dismantled another operational network in Kerman and Alborz provinces before it could act.
According to the ministry, security forces seized micro-drones, Starlink equipment, silenced pistols, rifles, body armor, a specially outfitted vehicle, and large quantities of ammunition.
Separately, Tehran says it arrested a man identified as “Masoud T.” near Iran’s northern border, accusing him of attempting to smuggle classified documents from a military site in Qazvin Province out of the country.
