Syria-Lebanon-Iran
Report: Mossad caught, interrogated senior IRGC member in Iran
2022-07-22
[IsraelTimes] The Saudi-sponsored London-based TV channel Iran
...The nation is noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence...
International claims Israel’s Mossad spy agency captured a senior member of Iran’s Revolutionary Guards on Iranian territory, interrogated him and had him confess "to his role in sending weapons to other countries."

The channel’s report on Yadollah Khedmati cannot be verified and its sourcing is unclear.
Eventually we’ll be informed. Or not, as the case may be — but in the meantime, isn’t it fun to think it’s true!

#6  Skidmark’s Jerusalem Post link is full of juicy goodness from the same single source:

Video recorded from the interrogation and obtained by Iran International showed Khedmati confirming his role in the Logistics Wing of the IRGC and admitting that he had been in contact with Ali Asghar Nowrozi, an IRGC Quds Force official who has been identified by the IDF as responsible for transferring precision weapon components from Iran to Hezbollah in Lebanon.

Khedmati expressed regret for his operations sending weapons to Iranian proxies and asked his colleagues not to conduct such operations, according to the report. Khedmati is Nowrozi's deputy in the Logistics Wing. The IRGC official was reportedly released and allowed to return home safely after the interrogation.

The Iranian Student News Network (SNN) reported in June that a number of Iranians who had kidnapped and interrogated an unnamed IRGC official had been arrested.

Sources for Iran International stated that during the interrogation of Khedmati, information was obtained about Norozi's relationship with Fars Air Qeshm for transporting weapons.

In June, a Venezuelan cargo plane that had been purchased from the Iranian Mahan Air was detained in Argentina after Iranian citizens were found on the aircraft, including Gholamreza Ghasemi who has been linked in the past with the Quds Force’s Unit 190 and has been identified by the FBI as the CEO of Fars Air Qeshm.

The recent complaint that Mossad is running freely around Iran seems to be supported by all this. A worse nightmare even than the spy squirrels that were previously keeping the Mullahs up at night.
