Mossad Agents Snuck Nuclear Files Out of Iran with Authorities "on Their Tails"
(Times of Israel) Agents of Israel's spy agency Mossad smuggled hundreds of kilograms of files on Iran's clandestine nuclear weapons program out of Iran with Iranian agents "on their tails," Israel's Hadashot TV reported Tuesday. The operation required an expansive operational infrastructure within Iranian territory. The secret archives had been moved by Iranian authorities several times in a bid to keep them secret. In January, Mossad agents received information pointing them to certain safes in a specific container inside a warehouse maintained by the Revolutionary Guard's Intelligence Organization in an industrial area of southern Tehran. The team then broke in, removed the files and transferred them to a secondary location. Iranian officials realized that information had been taken before the files were out of the country.
