The Mossad recently thwarted an Iranian plot to assassinate an Israeli diplomat and a US general, and in a rare event, arrested the suspect on Iranian soil. Mossad agents interrogated the suspect, Mansour Rasouli, who admitted he had been ordered to lead a plot to assassinate an Israeli diplomat in Istanbul, a US general stationed in Germany, and a journalist in France. The suspect was recruited by the Quds Force, a branch of the IRGC responsible for overseas attacks. The hits were to be carried out by the European-stationed Quds Force Unit 840 via its connection to European drug cartels. The suspect said he had received an advance of $150,000 to prepare for the attack and was promised another further $1 million if he successfully assassinated the targets. The details of the affair were published over the weekend by the London-based Iranian opposition newspaper Iran International. Israel did not comment on the report. (YWN Israel Desk – Jerusalem)
