BREAKING! Assassination Attempt on Netanyahu: Israeli authorities have arrested a citizen on suspicion of involvement in an assassination plot targeting high-ranking officials, including Benjamin Netanyahu. The suspect, a businessman, was allegedly smuggled into Iran where he attended meetings discussing the assassination of Netanyahu, Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, and Shin Bet intelligence agency head Ronen Bar.
The IDF stated that the Israeli citizen entered Iran hidden in a truck and met with Iranian intelligence agents who requested actions, including assassination, on Israeli soil. The suspect, with ties to Turkey, demanded a $1 million advance before proceeding. Israel claims the plot was in retaliation for the killing of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh in Iran.
The suspect was arrested in August 2024, preventing a series of attacks in Lebanon and Syria that followed. The incident highlights heightened tensions between Israel and Iran, with accusations of assassination plots on both sides.
