[IsraelTimes] Spy agency says Yusef Shahbazi Abbasalilo was apprehended in operation in enemy territory; in video, he recounts following his Israeli target and making plans to kill him

Israel’s Mossad spy agency announced Thursday that in a special operation in Iranian territory, it had caught the Iranian terrorist sent to lead a planned terror attack against Israeli targets in Cyprus. The Mossad named the man as Yusef Shahbazi Abbasalilo and published a video of his interrogation by its agents, in which he confessed to the plot and gave details on it. It said Abbasalilo was given weapons for the attack from bigwigs in the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and instructions on its implementation. The spy agency said the plan was to target Israeli businessmen in the small island nation.

In his interrogation, Abbasalilo recounted following a target for liquidation and waiting for an opportunity to kill him, but said police eventually caught wind of the plot and he was forced to flee back to Iran
