Iran arrested a network of operatives linked to the Mossad, Israel’s intelligence agency, who were attempting to set off explosives at a “sensitive center” in the central Isfahan Province, state-run Nour News reported.
The devices had been planted at the unidentified location and the “terrorist operation” was thwarted “just a few hours” before it was executed, Nour said without specifying where it obtained the information.
The Mossad-linked agents had purportedly crossed into Iran from the Kurdish region of Iraq and received “months of training” in an African country, the report said.
