Israel's attack: Iran has become the playground of the Mossad

Before Israel this week an unprecedented Wave of air blows Against Iran Started, Israeli secret service employees had already secretly introduced into enemy areas.

operations of the Mossad in Iran

According to Israeli security officers, the Mossad secret service smuggled weapons into Iran to use them in the run -up to the air raids against Iran's defense. A base was set up at the start of explosives drones within Iran, which were later used to attack rocket launchers near Tehran. Precision weapons were also smuggled to neutralize systems for air defense systems, which paved the way for the Israeli Air Force, which carried out over 100 attacks with more than 200 aircraft in the early morning of Friday.

successful attacks and air superiority

The plan for deactivating Iranian defense seems to have been successful; Israel stated that all aircraft returned safely after the first waves of attack, which indicates an air superiority of Israel about parts of a country that is hundreds of miles away. The information collected by the Mossad in Iran also made it possible for the Israeli Air Force to target high -ranking Iranian commanders and scientists.

secret operations of the Mossad

It is particularly noteworthy that the Mossad published video material from some of his operations that show drones that apparently attack the apparently unsuspecting rocket launcher. This illustrates how deeply the Israeli secret services, especially the Mossad, have entered some of the best kept secrets in Iran. The operations make the Mossad appear as an almost unstoppable force in Iran, which is able to attack some of its highest rankings.

conclusion about the strategies of the Mossad

"The Mossad has been considering Iran as his playground for years," said Holly Dagres, Senior Fellow at the Washington Institute and curator of the Iranist newsletter. “Israel has repeatedly proven from the murder of leading nuclear scientists to sabotage files against Iranian atrial situations that it has opened in this shadow war, which has been opened since the first retaliation in April 2024.”

An Israeli security source reports that the last operations required the use of commands that acted deeply in Tehran and all over the country, while they were hidden from Iran's security and secret services. These Mossad teams aimed at air defense rockets, ballistic rockets and rocket launchers when the attack of the Israeli Air Force began.

long -term planning and implementation

According to another source of security, Mossad's operations were in planning for years, in which both secret service activities and the use of Mossad commands were deeply involved behind enemy lines. Some of the Mossad commands even operated in the Iranian capital itself. In addition to the drone base, which was set up long before the attack on Wednesday, the commands "precision-controlled weapon systems" near Iranian air defense systems were used when the Israeli air force began to bomb their goals. A second operation used highly developed, vehicle -assembled weapons to attack other Iranian defense systems.

murder as part of the strategy

The Mossad's operation also included the murder of high -ranking Iranian official. In the past, Israel has opened openly with Mossad's ability to act almost impunity in Iran. Iran Israel has accused a campaign of murder against the country's nuclear scientists since the early 2010s. Former Defense Minister Moshe Ya’alon indirectly admitted the targeted killings when he said that Israel could not be held responsible for the life expectancy of the Iranian nuclear scientists.

The long -term consequences for Iran

From 2007 to 2012, Israel is said to have carried out five covert murdered, almost all in Tehran, through the use of remote -controlled bombs or machine guns. Only one of the most important nuclear scientists Iran survived an attempted murder, Fereydoon Abbasi. Last month, Abbasi told Iranian state media that an attack on production facilities would not have any significant influence on the time frame to develop a bomb and added: "Our skills are distributed across the country. If you attack production facilities, this will have no consequences for our schedule, since our nuclear material is not stored above -ground."

Abbasi was one of the scientists who were killed in Tehran during the nightly attack of Israel. The actions of the Mossad soon became significantly public. At the beginning of 2018, Israel stole Iran's atomic archive from Tehran and presented the intelligence coup in a live broadcast from Jerusalem. In English, Netanyahu showed the archive, including what he described as copies of 55,000 pages of Iranian atomic information and a presentation of data carriers, which he said, contained 55,000 files.

criticism and security in relationships between Israel and Iran

Although Iran tried to dismiss Netanyah's comments as "childish" and "Laughable", the looting of the archive showed the trust of Israel in the ability of the Mossad to operate in Tehran. The operation, which required extensive planning and intimate knowledge of the location and the security of the archive, led the first Trump administration to withdraw from the original nuclear agreement with Iran, known as a common comprehensive action plan (JCPOA).

But Israel was not yet over. In November 2020, Israel Mohsen Fakhrizadeh, the chief atomic scientist of Iran, murdered with his wife in the Bulletproof car. At that time, Fakhrizadeh's car was in a convoy with three safety vehicles when it was shot at. Iran's state media reported that a remote -controlled machine gun opened fire to the nuclear scientist who was a goal for Israel for a long time.

The operation that Israel has not recognized publicly was carried out with remarkable precision and showed a deep knowledge of Fakhrizadeh's pattern of life. Despite repeated attempts to stop the Mossad, Iran has proven to be unable to improve.

The challenges for the Iranian secret service

RAM Ben Barak, the former deputy director of the Mossad, explained that the continued success of the organization is “due to a very, very unpopular regime that is even hated by the majority of the population. On the one hand, this allows the intelligence penetration and on the other hand we have the refinement and professionalism of Israeli secret service staff.” After the war in the Gaza Strip, Israel murdered the political leader of Hamas, Ismail Haniyeh, in the heart of Tehran. A source familiar with the matter reported that Israel placed an explosive body in a guest house in which Haniyeh was known. The bomb was hidden in the room for two months before she detonated when Haniyeh was in the room.
