The Mossad spy agency allegedly took a DNA sample from a corpse in the northern Lebanese village of Nabi Chit to see if it was the remains of long-lost Israeli airman Ron Arad, Arabic-language media house Al Arabiya reported on Tuesday.
Al Arabiya also reported that the Mossad abducted an Iranian general from Syria to interrogate him about Arad’s fate following a similar report by the London-based Rai al-Youm paper earlier on Tuesday.
