Report: Israel alerts Turkey of terror threat against diplomats

Turkish media say Mossad has warned Ankara's National Intelligence Agency that Iranian Quds Force operatives plan to mount terror attacks against Israeli diplomats, Jewish sites on Turkish soil

Clear and present danger? The Turkish Daily Hurriyet reported Thursday that Israel has warned Turkey of an imminent threat of terror against Israeli diplomats stationed on its soil.

 

The report quoted Ankara's NTV channel as saying that the Mossad warned its Turkish counterpart, the National Intelligence Agency (MIT), that "Iran's Revolutionary Guards' Quds Force is preparing bomb attacks against Israeli targets in Turkey."

The Turkish TV channels said that four individuals had already "entered Turkey from Iran," with the necessary weapons and materials – possibly explosives – to carry out the alleged attacks.

 

Hurriyet's MIT sources neither confirmed nor denied the report.

 

The Quds Force serves as the Revolutionary Guards international operations arm.

 

Israel believes its operatives were involved in the attacks on the Israeli missions in India and Georgia in February, as well as the terror attack in Thailand.
