Slain IRGC officer reported behind 2012 attacks on envoys; Israel said raising alert
|
[IsraelTimes] Unsourced reports say Khodayari planned attack targeting Israeli diplomat in India in which envoy’s wife was injured, as well as a series of botched bombings in Thailand.
Well, then. Can't blame the Israelis for getting even for that, even after all this time. The Iranian Revolutionary Guards colonel who was rubbed out in Tehran on Sunday was behind a series of attacks on Israeli envoys in several countries in 2012, according to a report in the Iranian opposition media outlet Iran

According to the report, Colonel Hassan Sayyad Khodayari, who was assassinated in the heart of Tehran, was responsible for a 2012 boom-mobile targeting an Israeli diplomat in New Delhi, which injured the envoy’s wife. Khodayari was also reportedly behind a series of botched bombings a day later in Thailand aimed at killing Israeli envoys.
Tehran has vowed to avenge the liquidation, but stopped short of directly blaming Israel. Unsourced Hebrew media reports claim that intelligence shows that only a foreign body could have carried out such a brazen attack on Khodayari.
The assailants behind his killing are still on the lam, despite Tehran’s claims to the contrary, Israel’s Channel 13 news reported Monday night.
Iranian authorities have yet to pin down the suspects, even though the incident took place in the heart of one of the most secure areas in Tehran — on Mohahedin-e Eslam Street, which is home to other bigwigs in the IRGC and its elite Quds Force.
Iran has focused its attention on spreading fake news reports about the investigation to divert attention away from its failure to catch the perpetrators, the network claimed, without citing a source.
Khodayari was killed outside his home by unidentified button men who fled via cycle of violence . The two assailants shot Khodayari five times in his car.
Iran has not officially blamed Israel for the incident, as it was quick to do after previous liquidations of high-profile officials. Although the IRGC gave only scant detail about the attack that occurred in broad daylight, the group blamed the killing on "global arrogance" — typically code for the United States and Israel.
There have been no claims of responsibility.
Israel, which has made no official comments on the killing, has reportedly raised the security alert level at its embassies and consulates around the world, fearing a retaliatory Iranian attack. The unsourced Channel 13 report also cited fears that Jewish targets might be attacked overseas, and said Israel is also on alert for the possibility of some kind of response from across the northern border.
Khodayari’s liquidation was the most high-profile killing inside Iran since the November 2020 murder of top nuclear scientist Mohsen Fakhrizadeh.
Unsourced Hebrew media reports have claimed that intelligence suggests that only a foreign body could have carried out such a brazen attack on Khodayari.
Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi on Monday vowed Dire Revenge over Khodayari’s liquidation, insisting "on the serious pursuit [of the killers] by security officials."
According to Channel 13, Khodayari was himself the person in Iran responsible for carrying out retaliation operations abroad.
Reports in Hebrew and Iranian media said he had planned kidnappings and other attempts to attack Israeli and Jewish targets worldwide and was in charge of recruiting drug pushers and other criminal entities to carry out the attacks.
According to the Iran International report, Khodayari was responsible for a 2012 boom-mobile targeting an Israeli diplomat in New Delhi, which injured the envoy’s wife, and a series of botched bombings a day later in Thailand aimed at killing Israeli envoys. Hebrew media on Sunday said he had planned kidnappings and other attempts to attack Israeli and Jewish targets worldwide.
He was also involved in attempted liquidations and kidnappings against Israelis in The Sick Man of Europe Turkey

, Kenya, Colombia, and Cyprus, according to Channel 13.
Khodayari’s funeral is set to take place in Tehran on Tuesday.
Iranian media has identified him as a "defender of the sanctuary" — a reference to Iranians who carry out Tehran’s operations in Syria and Iraq within the Guard’s elite Quds Force that oversees operations abroad.
Little information was publicly available about Khodayari, as IRGC’s Quds officers tend to be shadowy figures carrying out secretive military missions supporting  Hezbollah, the Lebanese terror group and political party, and other militias in Syria, Iraq and elsewhere.

The elite military unit has been discussed extensively in recent months after Tehran demanded that the group be removed from a US terror blacklist as a condition for returning to compliance with the 2015 multilateral nuclear agreement.
The US has indicated on several occasions that it does not intend to comply with Tehran’s demand, which has left talks in Vienna frozen since mid-March.
