Dubai, United Arab Emirates – Iranian intelligence announced that it had obtained what it described as a “treasure of information” about Israel.
This comes amid tensions between Iran and Israel on the one hand. And the International Atomic Energy Agency on the other.
189 Israeli nuclear and military experts
Intelligence Minister Ismail Khatib revealed that Iranian intelligence had obtained information about 189 Israeli nuclear and military experts.
He added that among the files extracted were photos and private information about Rafael Grossi, Director of the International Atomic Energy Agency. This included details about his family.
The minister stressed that these materials show that Israel was actively spying on Grossi and the agency.
In doing so, it monitors the body charged with supervising nuclear programs around the world.
He noted that complete information had been obtained. This included the names, specifications, addresses, and job relationships of 189 Israeli nuclear and military experts.
In addition to the projects associated with each of them.
He pointed out that “this list is still being completed.”
Accurate details about military sites
He also stressed that “the information obtained includes precise details about sensitive dual-use military sites”.
Its coordinates were handed over to missile units in Iran. Some of these were targeted during the 12-day war, last June.
He explained that “the treasure trove of information that was transferred into Iran included millions of pages of diverse and valuable information. This information was related to Israel.”
“inhumane” projects
He also added that the documents included previous and current weapons projects.
In addition to projects to modernize and reprocess old nuclear weapons, and joint projects with America and some European countries.
In addition to complete information about the administrative structure and those in charge of the nuclear weapons program.
He also pointed out that these documents contained lists of the names of researchers, scientists, and senior managers of anti-humanitarian weapons projects.
Among them are American and European scientists, in addition to the addresses of establishments, companies, and all their collaborators.
Material motive and “Netanyahu’s hatred”
Khatib pointed out that “some nuclear devices, military institutions, and ordinary Israeli citizens participated in leaking and transferring this huge amount of documents.” They did this either out of financial motives. Additionally, it was because of their hatred for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, according to his claim.
He added, “I say now to this corrupt person (Netanyahu), instead of being preoccupied with solving the water crisis in the country, it is better for you to address the living problems of your employees. They cooperated with us out of financial gain. They are still cooperating”.
difficult phase
This came after Grossi acknowledged last Monday. On the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly, that negotiations with Iran over its nuclear program were going through a “difficult stage”.
But at the same time, he considered that reaching a diplomatic solution was still possible.
It is noteworthy that some Iranian officials had previously accused the International Agency of siding with Israel. They leaked information to it about Iranian nuclear facilities.
Meanwhile, Tehran suspended its dealings with the IAEA, before announcing weeks ago that it had reached an agreement with it. This followed a meeting between Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi and Grossi in Cairo.
However, Iran confirmed after this meeting that the agreement did not allow IAEA inspectors access to all of its nuclear facilities.
She stressed that this path must be approved by the Supreme National Security Council.
