Peruvian police have announced the arrest of a 56-year-old Iranian citizen, Majid Azizi, who was reportedly a member of Iran's Quds Force and allegedly planned to kill an Israeli citizen in Peru. The arrest took place in Lima, where Azizi was apprehended along with two Peruvian individuals.
According to Gen. Óscar Arriola, Peru's police chief, authorities were able to thwart the attack against the Israeli target, although the specific identity of the intended victim has not been disclosed for security reasons. A third Peruvian suspect believed to be the mastermind behind the plot is still at large.
