Israeli Intelligence Infiltrates Syria

(Zaman Al Wasl-Syria) The Israeli spy Eli Cohen was not the only agent who succeeded in penetrating Syria's regime, a source who worked for years in Syrian Military Intelligence confirmed. In 2001, during a routine inspection of the office of Minister of Defense Mustafa Tlass, a signal was detected from inside his desk. A team cut into the desk to find a sophisticated recording and transmission device. "We discovered that the desk and the office's furniture, which were shipped by sea, were a gift from one of the Minister's friends who lived in Germany." In 2004, a military patrol at Al-Dumayr airport randomly opened a telecommunication inspection chamber to find strange devices inside. Experts discovered a listening and recording device linked to the main cable connecting Dumayr and Al-Sin airports, which had been operating for 2 1/2 years. In 2008, a spying device planted in the ceiling of the office of the commander of the 155th Brigade in Al-Qutayfa was discovered. The device had been planted during the construction of the building. In 2013, a fisherman found a large electrical cable emerging from a rock on Alnaml Island near the port of Tartus. Syrian intelligence discovered a sophisticated high-resolution camera and transmission system, linked with satellite receivers, facing the hill where anti-ship Yakhont missiles were stationed.
