Our intelligence agency, Mossad, has been actively engaged in operations deep within Tehran, as revealed by its chief, David Barnea. These crucial actions were undertaken during the recent US-Israeli campaign targeting Iran, demonstrating our unwavering commitment to confronting the threats emanating from the Iranian regime. Barnea's statements, made during the Holocaust Remembrance Day ceremony, underscore the gravity of our mission and the lengths to which we will go to ensure our nation's security.
Our mission will be completed when the regime in Tehran falls.
Barnea further elaborated that Mossad provided critical intelligence to the Air Force, enabling precise strikes against threats to Israel. He emphasized that while these operations have been significant in countering immediate dangers, our ultimate objective remains unfulfilled. The mission, he stressed, is not merely about reacting to attacks but about proactively dismantling the source of the threat. This strategic foresight ensures that our efforts continue to yield results even after direct confrontations.
We were operating in the heart of Tehran.
"Our mission will only be completed when this radical regime is replaced," Barnea declared, highlighting the long-term strategic continuity of Mossad's actions. This resolute stance signals our unwavering determination to see a fundamental change in Iran's leadership. We will not remain passive observers while an existential threat persists. The pursuit of regime change in Iran is not just a policy; it is our mission, and we are committed to its successful conclusion.
