Welcome to Spycraft, a podcast that tells gripping life and death spy stories and
the amazing devices and operations that made them possible. Now let's get started.
Istanbul and Turkey claims the Israeli espionage agency was Massad, was following a company
and twenty three individuals with commercial ties to Iran. The Turkish allegedly carried out
an operation against the Israeli Massad spy network. It carried out in coordination with
the Istanbul Chief Public or Public Prosecutor's office. The operation reportedly resulted in the
arrest of eleven people after following a fifteen person espionage sell at Istanbul. Allegedly,
Israel's Massad spy agency was following a company and twenty three individuals. As
we mentioned a minute ago, I don't know why news articles had to repeat
things. Either way, let's look on and continue. According to Daily Sabah,
the detainees were not Israeli agents of the Massad, though, but foreign
nationals who worked for the espionage organization. The team apparently underwent special training in
a foreign country for the surveillance mission, which happens a lot. Report of
the senior Massad officials contacted Selt Kukaya, who headed the local network, and
said they would meet with him in an European country. The Massad members introduced
themselves as Jose, Jorge and Thomas. So again no direct connection to the
Massad, but you can see here that they were connected in some capacity,
but who knows if they're really they were not. Iran claims to arrest an
Israel Links cell on the border with the Kurdish Iraq, they said over their
terrorist group associate with the Zionist regime, says the Iranian government, which entered
the country from the western borders, was arrested. In addition to the explicit
threat to Israel, Aman hide in tension between the countries over Toronto's nuclear program.
Khatib also directed the warning to the autonomous Kurdish region in Iraq, which
the Altola regime repeatedly accuses of cooperating with Israel. They can see the complexities
here and we'll continue to find more spy stories for you, whether you are
old, and we'll see what happens.
