Iran Might Purge Its Intelligence and Counterintelligence Community

Khoshnood, Ardavan LU orcid (2021) In Begin-Sadat Center for Strategic Studies, Perspective Papers
Abstract
Mohsen Rezaee, a high-ranking official of the Islamic Republic in Iran, has admitted that top-secret Iranian nuclear documents were stolen in a raid of a Tehran warehouse by Israeli operatives in 2018—a raid the regime had denied ever occurred. Rezaee is calling for a purge of the Iranian intelligence and counterintelligence community, which could result in Iranian intelligence operatives fleeing the country or dying in “accidents.”
