Iran has obtained a trove of “strategic and sensitive” Israeli intelligence, including files related to Israel’s nuclear facilities and defense plans, the Islamic Republic state broadcaster reported on May 7.
“Iran’s intelligence apparatus has obtained a vast quantity of strategic and sensitive information and documents belonging to the Zionist regime (Israel),” said the broadcaster, citing informed regional sources.
The intelligence included “thousands of documents related to that regime’s nuclear plans and facilities,” it adds.
According to the report, the data was extracted during “a covert operation,” and included a “vast volume of materials — including documents, images, and videos.”
The broadcaster also said that the data was thoroughly reviewed by Iranian authorities after being securely transferred to the country.
The report, which was carried by the Hezbollah-affiliated Lebanese outlet al-Mayadeen and Iran’s Tasnim news agency, didn’t include any details on the documents or how Iran had obtained them. It also didn’t say if the Islamic Republic was going to release any of the data to the public.
