Mossad recruited Iranian scientists to blow up nuclear facility - report
|
 [JPost] Even if it's not true/exaggerated, it'll cause a purge among the capable
As many as 10 nuclear scientists agreed to help destroy centrifuges at the Natanz nuclear facility.
The Mossad was behind the destruction of one of Iran's most secure and important nuclear facilities, and they did this by discreetly recruiting a team of Iranian nuclear scientists, according to a new report by the Jewish Chronicle. According to the report, as many as 10 nuclear scientists agreed to help destroy the centrifuge hall at the Natanz nuclear facility in April. However, it seems they did not know they were doing this on behalf of Israel, but rather for other dissident groups.
| “Hi, my name is Moshe. I’m a peace-loving Iranian Shiite. I think we should burn down the nuclear bomb factory. Who’s with me?” |
Ultimately, the Natanz explosion caused significant destruction at the Natanz nuclear plant.
From the start, Iranian media and officials accused Israel of being behind the incident, something Israel has never commented on, despite originally referring to it as an accident. Others further speculated that the US was somehow involved
However, according to the JC, the destruction of the Natanz centrifuges was conducted by the Mossad alone, and had been in the works for years.
According to the report, explosives were hidden as early as 2019. Further, an armed drone was smuggled into the Islamic Republic piece by piece in order to eventually launch missiles at another site in Karaj.
Overall, the report claims three operations were planned in a period of just 18 months. This included the work of a thousand technicians, spies and on-the-ground operatives.
This is a developing story.

It says the explosives used in the attack were smuggled in through various means, including in a catering truck and in packages dropped by a drone and collected by the accomplices inside the facility.
"The scientists’ motivations were all different," an unnamed source told the paper. "Mossad found out what they deeply wanted in their lives and offered it to them. There was an inner circle of scientists who knew more about the operation, and an outer circle who helped out but had less information."
He added that the scientists were all taken to safety after the attack and are safe.

Mossad spies recruited top Iranian scientists to blow up their own nuclear plant by 'posing as dissidents' and 'smuggling explosives disguised as boxes of food'
- Israeli agents reportedly drafted up to 10 scientists to destroy nuclear facility
- Explosives were apparently smuggled inside on lorries and dropped by drones
- Revelation is one of three alleged Mossad-linked act of sabotages dating to 2020, when the Natanz facility was first hit by explosives
- A third operation also reportedly took place in June when a bombing was carried out by a quadcopter drone on the Iran Centrifuge Technology Company (TESA).
- It comes as the Israeli PM calls on the US to halt resumed nuclear talks with Iran
