Iraqi Officials: No Proof of Mossad Base in Erbil
(Asharq al-Awsat-UK) No evidence has been found that supports Tehran's claims that Israel's foreign intelligence agency, the Mossad, operated a permanent spy station in the Kurdish city of Erbil in northern Iraq, two Iraqi officials told Asharq al-Awsat on Monday. Iran's Revolutionary Guards launched a missile attack on a villa belonging to a Kurdish businessman in Erbil on March 13. One of the Iraqi officials said, "Iraq asked the Iranian side to back up its claims regarding the Israeli Mossad, but it failed to do so despite Iraq's efforts."
